  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Mobile communication systems typically use antennas to receive and transmit signals. In order to enable a signal to cover a larger range, it is often necessary to mount the antenna at the top or higher position. The signal capacity and coverage of an antenna are limited. To increase the capacity and cover a large area, it is necessary to use an array of thousands of antennas. The azimuth and downtilt of the antenna are designed to form a honeycomb structure.

  • the personnel under the tower rely on the personal visual "feel" to tell the tower personnel to rotate the antenna to adjust the horizontal azimuth until the tower The person "feels" almost to the preset direction.
  • the process of adjusting the local end includes: The high-altitude operator on the tower cooperates with the ground handheld compass device to complete the search for the horizontal azimuth of the antenna. The personnel rely on the personal visual "feel", tell the tower personnel to rotate the antenna to adjust the horizontal azimuth, until the person under the tower "feels" almost to the preset direction, and then judges whether to adjust by the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) voltage value of the local end. In place, if there is no adjustment in place, you need to re-adjust. Then, the local end is fixed and the opposite end is adjusted. The process of adjusting the opposite end is similar to the process of adjusting the local end. Adjusting the dip angle of the microwave antenna It is similar to the process of adjusting the downtilt angle of the base station antenna.
  • the inventors have found that the prior art has at least the following disadvantages: In the process of adjusting the angle of the antenna, there must be a person on the tower to adjust the antenna, and the ground must have personnel to tell the tower whether the person is adjusted to the appropriate Angle, two people need to collaborate. Since the ground personnel are far away from the antenna, there will be an error in the judgment of the angle of the antenna, which may inform the tower of the wrong angle information, causing the personnel on the tower to adjust the antenna to the wrong angle, and then need to re-adjust the subsequent steps. The antenna needs to be adjusted several times to adjust, and the adjustment efficiency is low.
