ANTENNA SYSTEM

摘要

When communication is performed simultaneously with two moving bodies such as a satellite, an antenna construction in which a plurality of antennas do not become an obstacle to each other's communication and the direction (the azimuth angle and the elevation angle) adjusting mechanism thereof can be realized with a simple construction. The two antennas have another movable portion (a rotation mechanism with respect to the axis) independently, while sharing the direction adjusting mechanism for the azimuth angle and the elevation angle. The rotation axis of the rotation mechanism of each antenna faces the same direction on the same plane, and each rotation mechanism is separately arranged in an area defined by a plane obtained by extending the axis of the azimuth angle adjusting mechanism toward the axial direction of the elevation angle adjusting mechanism. The azimuth angle and the elevation angle of respective antennas can be separately adjusted by the rotation mechanism with respect to the axis, hence the antennas can be directed to the communication targets existing in the two different directions simultaneously from the reception point. <IMAGE>
