Abstract. 
It is described general structural schemes of the composite controlled 
multipanel reflecting surface of the large millimeter radio telescope’s main 
reflector with frame-truss bottom, which uses hexagonal or trapezoidal mirror 
shields as statically defined rigid body with controlled spatial surface. 
Necessary and sufficient terms of the geometric invariability of the composite 
surface are identified. Also structural properties of the multielement surface 
structure and terms of its controllability are formed. The iterative 
asymptotically stable in vicinity of stabilization’s surface principle of 
adjusting positioning of spatial location of the reflecting surface’s fixed 
points is proposed.

telescope, main reflector, composite reflecting surface, geometrical 
invariability, fixed points, controlled and uncontrolled ties, controllability, 
adjustment, asymptotic stability.
