Design of a Wireless Transmission in an Antenna Misalignment Detection System

The unnecessary antenna tilting poses a significant challenge to mobile network operators with thousands of cell sites and continues to expand over the years. The rapid increase in mobile users causes a growing demand for data rate, reliable and broader coverage, and efficient transmission for mobile network operators since wireless communication is essential to everyday life. Thus, efficient monitoring and detecting antenna tilting are vital. The authors proposed the Design of a Wireless Transmission in an Antenna Misalignment Detection System as a solution to immediately assess and detect unnecessary antenna tilting caused by natural phenomena. The device has an MPU 6050 sensor/s that detects any unnecessary movement/tilting of the antenna and a 4G LTE module that sends the collected data to a cloud, where operators can view it via computer, laptop, or mobile app to notify the telecommunications headquarters on the level of how the antenna shifted from its designated position.
