ABSTRACT:
An antenna device for receiving a radio wave transmitted from a communication satellite, converting the received radio wave into an electric signal, amplifying the signal, and outputting the amplified signal to a receiver is capable of quickly resuming a radio wave reception in the event of a failure. The antenna device includes a converter assembly having a straight waveguide and a twisted waveguide for supplying polarized radiowaves in the same direction to two LNBs, which are oriented in the same direction and fixed to a fixing adapter that is slidably mounted on a holder unit. Even when one of the LNBs suffers a failure, the other normal LNB can be used as a spare LNB and simply moved to replace the malfunctioning LNB. Therefore, any malfunctioning LNB can be replaced easily for quick resumption of a radio wave reception. A satellite communication reception system employs such an antenna device.
