Abstract: An azimuth support is rotatable around an azimuth axis. An elevation support is rotatable around an elevation axis. An auxiliary support is rotatable around an auxiliary axis that is perpendicular to the elevation axis. An antenna control device calculates a command orientation direction that is a direction in which a parabolic antenna is oriented. At initial capture of a communication target, the antenna control device sets an original point of an auxiliary axis to a midpoint of a rotation range of the auxiliary axis and sets an original point of an azimuth axis and an original point of an elevation axis to an azimuth angle and an elevation angle of the command orientation direction.
