To meet the demand for highly efficient folding and high gain antenna used in CubeSats, a deployable reflector antenna that can be tightly coiled was presented using flexible composite materials. The antenna was mainly composed of flexible reflector, cylindrical shell boom, sub-reflector and feed. The cylindrical shell booms play the role to deploy and maintaining the flexible reflector in the needed shape. One end of each cylindrical shell boom was connected to the periphery of the reflector, while the other one was fixed to the center of the antenna. A simple method was developed to predict the coiling load using elastic Euler beam theory. A 0.5 m prototype antenna was constructed and tested for coiling deployment and RF performance. The diameter and height of the prototype in coiled state were nearly 140 mm and 180 mm separately, and the predicted constraint load was 24% higher than the test value.
