The lower tower section may have a pivot configured to be pivotally secured to a stationary ground base. The ground tower may also include a stand pivotably secured to one of the plurality of tower sections, which is configured to support an end of the assembled tower structure in an assembly orientation to permit assembly of one or more tower devices to the tower structure.

Microwave antenna systems include a parabolic reflector antenna and a dual-band feed assembly. The dual-band feed assembly includes a coaxial waveguide structure and a sub-reflector. The coaxial waveguide structure includes a central waveguide and an outer waveguide that circumferentially surrounds the central waveguide. The sub-reflector is mounted proximate the distal end of the coaxial waveguide structure.

Disclosed is an antenna device, antenna system, and methods to create, and install or modify, an antenna profile for an antenna device so as to direct remotely the propagation of radio frequency signal from the antenna device to targeted radio frequency geographic coverage areas. Ports may be selected to activate spatial segments created by the configuration of the reflectors, joined about a cylindrical core, which may be quadrants when the reflectors are configured into a cross-like shape. The system provides aid in orienting an antenna, upon installation, to a pre-designated geographic heading. Optionally, the tilt of each quadrant of an antenna device may be determined so as to ensure proper radio frequency coverage.

A sector antenna is provided comprising a base plate, a cable tower mounting to the base plate and at least one reflector mounting to the base plate and substantially parallel to the axis of the cable tower. The reflector includes a plurality of electrical components operative to transmit and receive telecommunications signals in an arcuate sector of the antenna. The reflector has an inwardly facing surface opposing the cable tower and an outwardly facing surface disposed away from the cable tower. Furthermore, a cable guide plate is interposed between the cable tower and the reflector such that apertures formed in the cable guide plate may provide a guide through which a conductor may pass for making an electrical connection to one of the electrical components along the outwardly-facing surface of the reflector. The cable guide plate apertures align with the reflector apertures and provide a guide to operators when assembling, maintaining and repairing the telecommunications antenna.

A base station antenna device includes an antenna module having a separation space spaced a predetermined distance forward from a support pole, a remote radio head (RRH) provided on the rear surface of the antenna module such that the RRH is slidably assembled in a detachable manner in a horizontal direction from a lateral side of the separation space, and an adapter having a push block provided on a lower end portion of the RRH so as to mediate the electrical signal connection and disconnection between the antenna module and the RRH by means of a pushing operation in the longitudinal direction.

A retainer assembly includes at least a front section, first and second sides, rack brackets, rack pins, a gear, a latch, and a user interface. The front section forms apertures. The rack brackets extend through a respective one of the apertures formed in the front section. The rack pins extend across the first side to the second side. The rack pins assist in coordinated movement of the rack brackets. The gear is located between and contacts the rack brackets. The gear is configured to laterally move the rack brackets. The latch is moveable from a first position to a second position to assist in preventing or inhibiting movement of the gear. The user interface is configured to move the gear.

Omnidirectional electromagnetic signal inducer (omni-inducer) devices are disclosed. The omni-inducer device may include a housing, which may include a conductive base for coupling signals to ground, and an omnidirectional antenna node including a plurality of antenna coil assemblies, where the node may be disposed on or within the housing. The omni-inducer device may further include one or more transmitter modules for generating ones of a plurality of output signals, which may be generated at ones of a plurality of different frequencies, and one or more control circuits configured to control the transmitters and/or other circuits to selectively switch the ones of the plurality of output signals between ones of the plurality of antenna coil assemblies.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an antenna apparatus includes a housing assembly including a radome portion and a lower enclosure portion, wherein the radome portion and lower enclosure portion are couplable to form an inner compartment for housing antenna components of the antenna assembly, an antenna stack assembly disposed within the inner compartment, wherein the antenna stack assembly generates heat when in operation, and a heat transfer system within the inner compartment configured to facilitate the flow of heat toward the radome portion.

An example mounting apparatus for a wireless communication node may comprise: a first weighting-element enclosure having a first set of connectors that extend from the first weighting-element enclosure; a second weighting-element enclosure having a second set of connectors that extend from the second weighting-element enclosure, and wherein the first weighting-element enclosure is connected to the second weighting-element enclosure via two joints that are disposed between the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors; a post that is affixed to either the first weighting-element enclosure or the second weighting-element enclosure; one or more communication-equipment enclosures that are each attached to the post and are each adapted to house respective equipment for the wireless communication node; and at least a first support strut that is connected between the post and a first one of the two joints disposed between the first weighting-element enclosure and the second weighting-element enclosure.

The present disclosure relates to a mounting assembly and a mounting kit comprising such a mounting assembly for a base station antenna, wherein the mounting assembly has first and second connection parts, an effective length therebetween is related to the mechanical tilt of the base station antenna, and the effective length is continuously adjustable. The mounting assembly comprises a connecting rod mechanism having a first pair of connecting rods, a second pair of connecting rods, and a threaded connection device, wherein the threaded connection device connects two relatively movable hinged connection parts, the distance between the two hinged connection parts can be continuously adjusted by screwing the threaded connection device, so that the effective length can be continuously adjusted to realize continuous adjustment of the mechanical tilt of the base station antenna.
