The deployable structure of the ring truss have advantage properties, which can be used as an effective supporting structure of deployable antenna. The deployable experiment of ring truss antenna showed that there was asynchronous phenomenon at the course of the deployment. Dynamics theory including constraint equations and considering friction factor are built firstly. Then simulation is studied systematically for the deployment process of ring truss deployable antenna. At last, the conclusions are obtained that the friction insulted in tensile forces of the cable drive decrease and the asynchronous phenomenon in the process of the deployment. It will give some help to the design and manufacture of the ring truss antenna.
