Electrical tilt antenna monitoring system and method

Abstract

The invention provides an electrical tilt antenna monitoring system and method. The system comprises a smart phone and a communication interface conversion module. The communication interface conversion module comprises a USB interface, a USB to RS485 circuit and an AISG interface. The smart phone is connected with the USB interface. The USB interface is connected with a USB end of the USB to RS485 circuit. The AISG interface is connected with an RS485 end of the USB to RS485 circuit. The AISG interface is connected with an antenna information module and an electrical tilt antenna controller through an AISG cable. A user instruction is sent to the USB interface through the smart phone. The USB to RS485 circuit converts the user instruction from USB data into RS485 data and sends the RS485 data to the antenna information module and the electrical tilt antenna controller through the AISG interface. Operation response data is correspondingly returned to the smart phone. The system and the method are low in cost and are easy to popularize. Maintenance work can be conveniently carried out on a tower through utilization of a mobile phone and the communication interface conversion module, in large-scale radio communication operation, the economical benefits are remarkable, and the system and the method have important market value.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of monitoring of electrically adjustable antennas, and in particular to an electrically adjustable antenna control system and method. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, smart ESC antennas have been widely used in the field of communications. Smart ESC antennas are generally equipped with antenna information modules and ESC antenna controllers, antenna information modules and ESC antenna controllers. The fault also increases proportionally with the large-scale application. It is a more effective and convenient method to use the handheld controller to deal with the fault of the ESC antenna controller on site. However, the current handheld controller has a single function and does not have the antenna information module adjustment. It also requires a backup battery, which is cumbersome and expensive, and has not been widely used by telecom operat...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, smart electronically adjustable antennas have been widely used in the field of communication. Intelligent electronically adjustable antennas are generally equipped with antenna information modules and electronically adjustable antenna controllers, antenna information modules and electronically adjustable antenna controllers Faults also increase proportionally with large-scale applications. It is a more effective and convenient method to use a hand-held controller to deal with the fault of an electronically adjustable antenna controller on site. However, the current hand-held controller has a single function and does not have antenna information module adjustment test function, and requires a backup battery, which is heavy and costly, and has not been widely used by telecom operators

If the antenna information module commissioning function is provided on the handheld controller, the cost will increase, far exceeding the handheld controller, so it is difficult to achieve
