Abstract:
A satellite tracking system for tracking a synchronous satellite includes a satellite antenna system movably supported on a roof of a vehicle via a roof frame to move between an operation position and a folded position. At the operation position, the satellite antenna system is rotated on the roof frame to adjust a horizontal orientation of a parabolic reflector of the satellite antenna system while the parabolic reflector is pivotally lift at a predetermined inclination angle to align with the satellite. At the folded position, the parabolic reflector is pivotally dropped down until the parabolic reflector faces downwardly to the roof of the vehicle to conceal a signal transmitting device of the satellite antenna system between the parabolic reflector and the roof of the vehicle. Therefore, the satellite antenna system provides a relatively low profile at the folded position when the vehicle travels.
