Abstract: The idea is to develop a system which will control the movement of the dish antenna in all direction through an android application. The main application of using a dish is to receive signal from satellite and other broad casting sources. In order to position the dish to the exact angle to receive the maximum signal of a particular frequency it needs to be adjusted manually. In order to overcome the difficulty of adjusting manually, this proposed system helps in adjusting the position of the dish through an android application device. Remote operation is achieved by any smart-phone with android OS. The different directions of the dish are attained by using two servomotors, one move in vertical and other in horizontal direction. The servo motor actions are controlled by the micro controller.
