Abstract: An antenna device includes: an antenna base portion; an antenna mount portion which is supported by the antenna base portion and rotated around an azimuth axis and which supports a main reflector with two struts; a frame structure group including a plurality of frame structures which are provided in the antenna base portion and the antenna mount portion, with six degrees of freedom restrained, respectively; a displacement gauge group which measures a displacement of the frame structure group; a metrology correction portion which calculates a pointing error of an antenna based on measured data of the displacement gage group and calculates a metrology correction amount by removing an error amount arising depending on an azimuth angle from the calculated pointing error; and a control circuit which controls a driving of the antenna by correcting a drive command value of the antenna with the metrology correction amount.

Abstract: A link-mechanism base is prepared within a yoke portion, and a link member is prepared in connection with the base within left and right supports. The link member connects the upper part of the supports or the upper part of the yoke portion, and the link-mechanism base. The displacement and angle of rotation of the upper part of the yoke portion are measured by using these link-mechanism base and link member, thereby measuring a change in the pointing direction of a reflector.
