Abstract: New base station antenna systems may detect service affecting environmental changes, integrate to standardized computing platform and cellular wireless modem, transform BSA into an independent communications hub and generate test calls, reducing drive tests. A BSA includes a panel that includes a ground plane, at least a first array that includes multiple radiating elements, at least one sensor that is configured to sense an environmental condition corresponding to the base station antenna and to generate an environmental condition signal that corresponds to the environmental condition, a circuit device that includes a communication interface that is communicatively coupled to the at least one sensor and that is operable to receive the environmental condition signal from the at least one sensor, and a wireless transmitter that is communicatively coupled to the circuit device and that is operable to transmit message data corresponding to the environmental condition signal to a remote receiver.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operating an antenna providing a coverage area using beamforming and carrier aggregation techniques. The proposed system aims to optimize the use of carrier aggregation for beamforming systems. The system may include a beamforming module coupled to first array and second arrays of radiating elements, the first array being configured to provide wireless coverage on a first frequency carrier in a first coverage area, and the second array being configured to provide wireless coverage on a second frequency carrier in a second coverage area. The beamforming module may be configured to receive one or more indicators associated with one or more user equipments (UEs) in the coverage area. Based on the one or more indicators, the beam-forming module may be configured to dynamically adjust, in the RF domain, at least one of a location of the second coverage area and a size of the second coverage area.
