A multiple beam space antenna system for facilitating communications between a satellite switch and a plurality of earth-based stations is shown. The antenna is deployed after the satellite is in orbit by inflation of a raft-type supporting structure which contains a number of antenna horns. These antenna horns are oriented in substantially concentric circular groups about a centrally located antenna horn. Each of the antenna beams projects an area on the earth. Each of the areas of the beams are contiguous. As a result, one large area is subdivided into many smaller areas to facilitate communications. In addition, a lens may be employed to focus the beams of the horn antennas.
