Abstract

Ein Nachführsystem (1) zur Ausrichtung einer Reflektorantenne (2) auf eine elektromagnetische Strahlungsquelle (3) weist einen Reflektor (4) und einen dem Reflektor vorgelagerten rotierbaren Subreflektor (5) auf, der von dem Reflektor reflektierte Strahlung (12) der elektromagnetischen Strahlungsquelle (3) auf ein Empfangselement (7) lenkt und Trigger-Signale für eine Signalmessung der reflektierten Strahlung erzeugt. Der Subreflektor (5) ist gegenüber dem Reflektor (4) um einen Offset-Winkel (10) geneigt. Der Reflektor (4) ist als Abschnitt eines Paraboloids ausgebildet. Der Subreflektor kann flach, konvex, parabolisch oder hyperbolisch ausgebildet sein. Zwischen Subreflektor und Empfangselement ist ein die Strahlung führendes Führungsrohr (13) angeordnet. Das verfahren zum Ausrichten einer verschwenkbaren Reflektorantenne (2) sieht vor, daß die vom Subreflektor (5) reflektierte Strahlung (12) infolge einer Neigung des Subreflektors (5) gegenüber dem Reflektor (4) bei Rotation des Subreflektors (5) auf einer vorgegebenen Bahn ausgelenkt wird. Bei einer Fehlstellung des Reflektors (4) wird die Signalstärke der vom Subreflektor (5) reflektierten Strahlung (12) abgeschwächt und bei einer Verringerung der Fehlstellung erhöht.
