Portable folding microwave antenna

摘要

A microwave directional antenna in which a parabolic reflector is mounted on a portable base. The parabolic reflector is constructed in two semicircular sections that are hinged to each other and to a supporting pedestal for rotation about a common horizontal hinge axis. The two sections can be rotated in opposite directions to move the sections between a folded position during transit and an extended position when in operation. In the extended position the two sections are locked together and rotated as a unit to change the elevation of the antenna.
