Kinematics, dynamics and design of a spherical positioning robot for satellite tracking and other applications.

In order to avoid the keyhole problems associated with the current antenna mounting systems and to meet the requirements of target acquisition and tracking for high gain narrow beamwidth antennas, a novel antenna mounting system has been developed. The antenna is mounted on a parallel robot based on...
