Abstract
The antenna transmits and receives signals has a number of electronics that generate heat. For cooling, four fans and airways circulate air inside the antenna-equipped housing to exchange heat from the cooling plate assembly. In this study, fluid analysis was conducted to assess the suitability of the cooling system. The electronic components of the antenna exhibited temperature values lower than the maximum operating temperature of the components, which showed that the cooling system for the antenna had sufficient performance.
