An effective method for sensitivity analysis of uncertain parameters in space reflectors is presented. In the method, the sensitivities of uncertain parameters with respect to structural modes are explicitly derived by utilizing the singular value decomposition of sensitivity matrix, which can predict which modes are excited due to the variation patterns of uncertain parameters. A simple numerical example, the model of which is a radial rib and hoop cable antennas that consists of 60 radial ribs, are provided to verify the effectiveness of the presented method.
