AUTOMATIC POSITIONING ANTENNA SYSTEM FOR USE IN MULTI-SATELLITE RECEPTION, AND METHOD FOR TRACKING SATELLITES

摘要

The present invention relates to an automatic positioning antenna system for receiving multiple satellite signals and a method for tracking satellites to track positions of satellites through a satellite tracking LNB installed separately from a broadcast LNB, recognize the current position through information on tracked satellites and control an antenna to be oriented to the position of a target satellite to quickly receive satellite broadcast signals. The system includes an antenna unit having an antenna to which a broadcast LNB and a satellite tracking LNB receiving satellite signals for satellite tracking are connected, a switching unit for selecting the broadcast LNB or the satellite tracking LNB, a control unit for analyzing signals received through the satellite tracking LNB and controlling the antenna unit to be oriented to a target satellite using tracked satellite information; and a drive unit for moving the antenna unit under the control of the control unit.
