Using Satcom-On-The-Move (SOTM) antenna on moving carriers to track communication satellites is a rapidly developing technology. The normal running of the SOTM system requires its antenna beam to track the target communication satellite accurately at all times. However, due to the errors of the measurement system, tracking deviation will inevitably occur, especially when the moving carrier is in ahigh maneuvering state, which may cause communication failures. In this paper, we propose a synthetic deviation correction algorithm; when the carrier is in the high maneuvering state, the measurement error is converted into the deviation of the azimuth as well as the pitch of the antenna that needs to be corrected to correct the pointing of the SOTM antenna. Finally, the proposed algorithm is verified by experiments. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a good isolation effect on the high maneuverability of the carrier, which means that the pointing to the communication satellite is more accurate and achieves better communication quality under the high maneuvering state. The effectiveness of the algorithm is illustrated.
