X/Y type pedestal for remote sensing: The pointing accuracy of antenna pedestal is a core factor for antenna capturing and tracking satellite. In order to realize the whole process of no-blind area tracking of special-purpose satellites such as resource satellites, it is necessary to solve the problem of over-top tracking. X/Y type pedestal design is a good choice compared with AZ/EL pedestal. The lower axis of X/Y type pedestal is the X axis. X axis is perpendicular to Y axis and is equivalent to rotate AZ/EL pedestal to a horizontal position. X-Y type pedestal shifts the antenna tracking blind zone to both ends of the X-axis. That is, the horizon, so that tracking the overhead target of the antenna can be satisfied. The main application of X-band X/Y Type Pedestal Ground Station for remote sensing antenna and LEO satellite tracking.
This X-Y type pedestal has the advantages of compact structure, small quality, high reliability, large moving range, high tracking precision and good sealing. The X/Y type pedestal structure is shown below.
