An evaluation is made of the development status of high stiffness space structures suitable for orbital construction or deployment of large diameter reflector antennas, with attention to the control system capabilities required by prospective space structure system types. The very low structural frequencies typical of very large, radio frequency antenna structures would be especially difficult for a control system to counteract. Vibration control difficulties extend across the frequency spectrum, even to optical and IR reflector systems. Current research and development efforts are characterized with respect to goals and prospects for success.
