To verify a design, an example mission is developed, consisting of a 2×2 patch antenna array with an integrated stripline bandpass filter. The operation frequency is 25.935 GHz. This multilayer antenna will be tested on board of the German technology demonstration mission ""Heinrich-Hertz"" (H2SAT). The design passed all tests for space qualification without decrease in performance.en621Lightweight and cost efficient spaceborn patch antennaconference paper
