ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method of automatically tracking a communication satellite by a parabolic antenna installed on a moving body such as ship, which can compensate for directional deviation caused not only by inclination of the body itself but also by its navigation, using a relatively simple and economical tracking system. The antenna is adjusted previously in its elevation and azimuth so that a received signal level above a predetermined level is obtainable when the moving body is in its stationary state. The method is characterized by a step of changing elevation and azimuth of the antenna within a predetermined range of variation, when the received signal level has lowered due to movement of the moving body, so as to trace a rectangular spiral on the celestial sphere by the axis of the antenna, until the received signal level exceeds the aforementioned predetermined level.
