Abstract

A satellite assembly 10 is provided, including an RF radiating element 12 including a plurality of RF choke elements 18, each of said plurality of RF choke elements 18 being defined by an RF dimensional set 20 including an RF depth 22 and an RF width 24. The satellite assembly 10 further includes a null aperture field zone 26 created by the plurality of RF choke elements 18, the null aperture field zone 26 created by tuning each of the RF dimensional sets 20. At least one field sensitive component 14 is positioned within said null aperture field zone 26.
