On-site maintenance is convenient, simple and fast and it can be quickly erected. It also relates to a technical solution and a use method of the small antenna. Background Art

[0002] This type of antenna provides accurate distance information to the aircraft, and the aircraft uses this information to ensure that the deviation of the landing point is within the specified range. The antenna is used at the airport to provide ground navigation and landing for the aircraft. It can provide accurate and intuitive guidance and landing information for the aircraft in complex meteorological environments such as heavy rain, heavy fog, dark or low-light nights where vision is obstructed, greatly improving the safety of the aircraft.

[0003] Large antennas are fixed devices that can only be installed at airports that have the conditions to install such antennas. The installation is complex and takes a long time. In recent years, there has been a new demand for this type of antenna for aircraft landing. Airports that do not have this type of antenna installed but are in urgent need of it, and runways that have the conditions to land aircraft but do not have the conditions to install this type of antenna (highways with aircraft landing, etc.) require this type of antenna to be lightweight, portable, easy to transport, simple and fast to install, easy to use, and easy to maintain.

[0004] In view of the above problems, the utility model provides a solution which is small, portable and can be quickly set up and put into working state. Utility Model Content

The antenna shielding box is made of lightweight metal material, which can protect the antenna 1 from external signal interference during use. The socket board 4, antenna cover 1 5, and antenna cover 2 6 are all made of wave-transparent materials. They are installed on the antenna support 2 without affecting the signal radiation of the antenna 1, protecting the antenna 1 from the harsh external environment and ensuring the normal operation of the antenna 1 in the harsh outdoor environment. The reflector 7 is installed on the antenna support 2 through the spring hinge 8. When the reflector 7 is not constrained, it rebounds to the unfolded working state through the spring hinge 8. The size and number of the openings of the reflector 7 are determined by the radiation wavelength of the antenna 1, which can reduce the weight without affecting the signal radiation.
