This chapter presents an overview of the development of various antennas for small‐satellite applications. It gives an introduction to small satellites at the beginning and introduces different types of small satellites. The chapter discusses challenges for designing antennas for small satellite. It discusses many small satellite antennas for TTC, data downlink, GNSS and intersatellite links such as patch antennas, the PEC antenna, QHA, horn antennas, and so on. The chapter finally provides two real‐world case studies which illustrate the practical design and development of antennas for small satellites. The future development of antennas for small satellites will move towards higher frequencies, electronic beam steering and multiple functions as well as smaller size.
