Design of an ultra low frequency CubeSat antenna payload for radio astronomy in space: state of the art

This paper presents a brief overview of the state of the art for the design of an ultra low frequency antenna (80 kHz-30 MHz) as a payload for a CubeSat used for radio astronomy in space. Current ultra low frequency radio astronomy antenna designs are shown along with a discussion about the basis for future research. One of the designs, the spiral antenna is discussed in more detail
