an antenna bracket fixed on the second connecting member, wherein the antenna is fixed on the antenna bracket, wherein the first positioning component passes through the first auxiliary arc slot and the first arc slot for connecting the first connecting member to the holder, and the first positioning component positions relative position between the holder and the first connecting member along the first arc slot and the first auxiliary arc slot so that the first connecting member rotatably moves around the first axis to adjust the relative position with the holder accordingly.

2. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the holder comprises a second arc slot and a second positioning component, and

the first connecting member comprises a first connecting part, wherein the second positioning component passes through the first connecting part and the second arc slot for connecting the first connecting member to the holder, and the second positioning component positions relative position between the holder and the first connecting member along the second arc slot so that the first connecting member rotatably moves around the first axis to adjust the relative position with the holder accordingly.

3. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the holder comprises a first connecting part, and the first connecting member comprises a second arc slot and a second positioning component, wherein the second positioning component passes through the first connecting part and the second arc slot for connecting the first connecting member to the holder, and the second positioning component positions relative position between the holder and the first connecting member along the second arc slot so that the first connecting member rotatably moves around the first axis to adjust the relative position with the holder accordingly.

4. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the first connecting member comprises a second connecting part, and the second connecting member comprises a second arc slot and a second positioning component, wherein the second positioning component passes through the second connecting part and the second arc slot for connecting the second connecting member to the first connecting member, and the second positioning component positions relative position between the first connecting member and the second connecting member along the second arc slot so that the second connecting member rotatably moves around the second axis to adjust the relative position with the first connecting member accordingly.

5. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the first connecting member comprises a second arc slot and a second positioning component, and the second connecting member comprises a second connecting part, wherein the second positioning component passes through the second connecting part and the second arc slot for connecting the second connecting member to the first connecting member, and the second positioning component positions relative position between the first connecting member and the second connecting member along the second arc slot so that the second connecting member rotatably moves around the second axis to adjust the relative position with the first connecting member accordingly. member and the antenna bracket are monolithically formed.

6. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the second connecting member and the antenna bracket are monolithically formed.

7. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the first axis is different from the second axis.

8. The antenna support device of claim 1 , wherein the first axis is perpendicular to the second axis.

9. The antenna support device of claim 1 , the holder further comprises a limiting component for ensuring that the first connecting member is capable of being adjusted in a rotatable manner when the holder is mounted on the support arm.

10. An antenna support device for supporting an antenna, comprising:

a support arm;

a holder mounted on the support arm;

a first connecting member rotatably connected to the holder around a first axis, the first connecting member comprising a second auxiliary arc slot;

a second connecting member rotatably connected to the first connecting member around a second axis, the second connecting member comprising a second arc slot and a second positioning component; and

an antenna bracket fixed on the second connecting member, wherein the antenna is fixed on the antenna bracket;

wherein the second positioning component passes through the second auxiliary arc slot and the second arc slot for connecting the second connecting member to the first connecting member, and the second positioning component positions relative position between the first connecting member and the second connecting member along the second arc slot and the second auxiliary arc slot so that the second connecting member rotatably moves around the second axis to adjust the relative position with the first connecting member accordingly.

11. An antenna support device for supporting an antenna, comprising:

a support arm;

a holder mounted on the support arm, the holder comprising a second arc slot and a second positioning component; and

an antenna bracket rotatably connected to the holder around a first axis and a second axis, the antenna bracket comprising a first auxiliary arc slot, wherein the antenna is fixed on the antenna bracket;

wherein the second positioning component passes through the first auxiliary arc slot and the second arc slot for connecting the antenna bracket to the holder, and the second positioning component positions relative position between the antenna bracket and the holder along the second arc slot so that the antenna bracket rotatably moves around the second axis to adjust the relative position with the holder accordingly.

12. The antenna support device of claim 11 , wherein the antenna bracket comprises a first arc slot and a first positioning component, and the holder comprises a first connecting part, wherein the first positioning component passes through the first connecting part and the first arc slot for connecting the antenna bracket to the holder, and the first positioning component positions relative position between the holder and the antenna bracket along the first arc slot so that the antenna bracket rotatably moves around the first axis to adjust the relative position with the holder accordingly.

13. The antenna support device of claim 12 , wherein both of the centers of the first arc slot and the first auxiliary arc slot are positioned on an axial lead of the first axis.

14. The antenna support device of claim 11 , wherein the antenna bracket comprises a first connecting part, and the holder comprises a first arc slot and a first positioning component, wherein the first positioning component passes through the first connecting part and the first arc slot for connecting the antenna bracket to the holder, and the first positioning component positions relative position between the holder and the antenna bracket along the first arc slot so that the antenna bracket rotatably moves around the first axis to adjust the relative position with the holder accordingly.

15. The antenna support device of claim 11 , wherein the first axis is different from the second axis.

16. The antenna support device of claim 11 , wherein the first axis is perpendicular to the second axis.
