Abstract: A portable parabolic antenna apparatus is disclosed, which comprises a leg assembly which includes at least three legs and a foldable support assembly. The support assembly includes a base rotatably and detachably mounted on the leg assembly and supporting a communication device, a foldable intermediate member having one end coupled to the top of the base, and a reflector holding member coupled to the other end of the intermediate member, for holding a parabolic antenna, the reflector holding member being located at such a distance from the base that it support the communication device when the support assembly is unfolded, and when the support assembly is folded, the reflector holding member is moved to contact the base.

Abstract: A portable antenna apparatus comprises a foldable leg unit. This leg unit is provided with at least three legs each having a first jack, and a mount whose angle of rotation is adjustable. A foldable support unit, which has a plurality of beam members combined to provide a substantially box-like shape, is coupled to the mount. A foldable arm unit is coupled to the support unit. The arm unit is provided with a reflector-mounting member having extension mechanism, an arm hinged to the reflector-mounting member, and a primary horn mount attached to the arm. A reflector made up of a plurality of divisions is attached to the reflector-mounting member of the arm unit, and a primary horn is attached to the primary horn mount of the arm unit.
