Publication number: 20110215985Abstract: Antenna and satellite communications assemblies and associated satellite tracking systems that may include a low profile two-way antenna arrangement, tracking systems, and applications thereof. Applications for the system include military, civilian, and domestic emergency response applications. The antenna arrangements may be configured to form a spatial multi-element array able to track a satellite in an elevation plane by electronically dynamically targeting the antenna arrangement and/or mechanically dynamically rotating the antenna arrangements about transverse axes giving rise to generation of respective elevation angles and dynamically changing the respective distances between the axes whilst maintaining a predefined relationship between said distances and the respective elevation angles. The system provides autonomous dynamic tracking of satellite signals and can be used for satellite communications on moving vehicles in a variety of frequency bands for military and civilian applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 18, 2011Publication date: September 8, 2011Applicant: RAYSAT ANTENNA SYSTEMS, L.L.C.Inventors: Ilan Kaplan, Mario Ganchev Gachev, Moshe Bercovich, Danny Spirtus, Daniel Francis DiFonzo, Kevin Arthur Bruestle, Robert Yip, Victor Boyanov, Yoel Gat, Stanimir Dimitrov Kamenopolski
