- the direction specifying unit 374 specifies a direction orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave based on the sensor data of the sensor that measures the physical quantity related to the inclination of the floating body 31 with respect to the vertical direction in the sensor group 33.

That is, the rotation control unit 375 of the control device 37 starts driving the actuator 35 at the transmission timing, and continues driving the actuator 35 until the signal transmission is completed.
- the terminal station 3 can transmit the signal while maintaining the state in which the extending direction of the antenna 36 is orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave. By maintaining a state in which the extending direction of the antenna 36 is orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave, the transmission intensity of the signal in the vertical direction upward can be maintained. The reason will be explained below.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a change in the directivity pattern when the extending direction of the antenna 36 is maintained orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave.
- the vertical direction is referred to as the Z-axis direction
- the horizontal direction in which the water surface wave travels is referred to as the X-axis direction
- the direction orthogonal to the X-axis is referred to as the Z-axis direction.
- the extending direction of the antenna 36 is orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave. That is, the extending direction of the antenna 36 faces the Y-axis direction.
- the antenna 36 is an antenna having a donut-shaped directivity pattern such as a dipole antenna or a monopole antenna, the directivity pattern P is rotationally symmetric with respect to the extending direction of the antenna 36. Therefore, the directivity pattern P is maintained even if the antenna 36 is rotated around the Y axis orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave due to the water surface wave. That is, it is possible to prevent the signal strength Px from fluctuating upward in the vertical direction.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a change in the directivity pattern when the extending direction of the antenna 36 is not orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave.
- the extending direction of the antenna 36 faces the traveling direction of the water surface wave. That is, the extending direction of the antenna 36 faces the X-axis direction. Since the directional pattern P of the antenna 36 is rotationally symmetric with respect to the extending direction of the antenna 36, when the antenna 36 is rotated about the Y axis by the water surface wave, the directional pattern P is axially orthogonal to the axis of rotational symmetry. Rotate to. Therefore, when the extending direction of the antenna 36 is not orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave, the larger the inclination with respect to the horizontal plane, the smaller the signal strength Px in the vertical direction.
- the control device 37 includes a processor, a memory, an auxiliary storage device, etc. connected by a bus, and by executing a communication program, a data acquisition unit 371, a data storage unit 372, a timing determination unit 373, a direction specifying unit 374, and rotation control. It functions as a device including a unit 375 and a transmission unit 376.
- the processor include a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a GPU (Graphic Processing Unit), a microprocessor and the like.
- the communication program may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium.
- the computer-readable recording medium is, for example, a storage device such as a magnetic disk, a magneto-optical disk, an optical disk, or a semiconductor memory.
- the communication program may be transmitted over a telecommunication line. All or part of each function of the control device 37 may be realized by using a custom LSI (Large Scale Integrated Circuit) such as an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) or a PLD (Programmable Logic Device). Examples of PLDs include PAL (Programmable Array Logic), GAL (Generic Array Logic), CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device), and FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). Such integrated circuits are also included as an example of a processor.
- the control device 37 drives the actuator 35 so that the direction in which the change in the inclination of the floating body 31 is the smallest coincides with the extending direction of the antenna 36, as shown in FIG. It is possible to maintain a state in which the extending direction of the antenna 36 is orthogonal to the traveling direction of the water surface wave. Therefore, the terminal station 3 can maintain the direction of the directivity of the antenna 36 with a simple configuration in which the number of rotation axes X to be controlled is small.
- the wireless communication device is the terminal station 3.
- the wireless communication device according to another embodiment may be the base station 4.
- the terminal station 3 includes one actuator 35 that rotates the antenna 36 around a rotation axis X orthogonal to the extending direction of the antenna 36.
- the terminal station 3 according to another embodiment may further include another actuator that rotates the antenna 36 around a rotation axis orthogonal to the extension direction of the rotation axis X and the antenna 36.
- the control device 37 drives another actuator, so that all the shaking with respect to the horizontal plane can be suppressed.
- the antenna 36 Since the wave traveling in the direction orthogonal to the main traveling direction is sufficiently smaller than the wave traveling in the main traveling direction, the antenna 36 is rotated with respect to one rotation axis X as in the above-described embodiment. Even so, the direction of directivity can be sufficiently maintained.
- the terminal station 3 provided on the ground may not have a configuration that rotatably supports the antenna 36.
