Abstract

A tree-like antennae support structure 10 comprises antenna mounting means on a tree trunk-like structure 11 and adjacent outwardly divergent branch-like structures 12 which are arranged such that a mounted antenna 13 has a clear arc of sight. The tree trunk and branch-like structures 11, 12 may be made from metal tubing with different diameters and curved transition portions, which are secured together. The arc of sight may be 120‹ and the antennae 13 may be dual polarised and vertically displaced relative to one another such that the branch-like structures can be in a realistic formation whilst avoiding interfering with the signals to and/or from the antennae. Also disclosed is a tree-like antenna support structure 10 which comprises at least two branch-like structures 30 extending upwardly from the top of a trunk 11 and each of said branch-like structures includes a vertical portion which provides a mounting for a dish antenna 14.
