Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A steerable antenna configuration (10) having all actuators (28, 30) and the feed source (16) mounted on a stationary side of the antenna thereby eliminating the need of having to supply power and/or communication signal through a rotation mechanism. A first actuator (28) rotates a reflector assembly (22) about a first axis (24), and a second actuator (30) rotates at least a main reflector (32) of the reflector assembly (22) about a second axis (26) perpendicular to the first axis (24). The second axis (26) is rotatable about the first axis (24) via the first actuator (28).
