Andrew's innovative solution for antenna smart beam adjustment and network capacity improvement

After the 3G network is officially commercialized, a large number of users enjoy the convenience brought by the data service through the intelligent terminal, which poses a new challenge to the network capability of the operator. At the end of 2009, European telecom operator O2 had to admit that the network was paralyzed. The big data traffic in the business center makes the network overwhelmed, and O2 has to invest more to improve network capabilities.

“Operators are desperate to let go, and hope that more users will join the network, which also brings huge load to the network.” Dr. Hua Yanping, manager of the base station antenna product line of Andrew, told the reporter, “Smart Beam Base Station Antenna System” It can help operators increase the network capacity of hotspots with less investment."

3D base station antenna beam adjustment

A normal base station antenna can only perform vertical downtilt adjustment, while a smart beam (SmartBeam) provides three-dimensional base station antenna beam adjustment: beam vertical plane downtilt, beam horizontal plane pointing, and beam horizontal plane width. Dr. Hua Yanping said that beam adjustment can be done in the remote office through Andrew's ANMS (Antenna Network Management System). These three waveform adjustments allow the radio operator to easily redistribute the coverage capacity of the base station network cluster by changing the traffic distribution when making combined adjustments. This greatly improves capacity efficiency while reducing or preventing the addition of redundant new cellular sites or radios. The flexible system of smart beam antennas can also improve network quality by providing stronger signals, reducing interference, reducing the number of dropped calls, and increasing data rates.

The smart beam works in a three-dimensional adjustment with a new generation of drivers mounted under the radome. Compared to the vertical beam tilt of a normal base station antenna, the smart beam increases the horizontal pan and the horizontal beam width change, which makes the new generation network optimization capability truly possible. The horizontal beamwidth variation enables the antenna horizontal beamwidth to vary from 35 to 105 degrees.

Intelligent adjustment to improve network capacity

Intelligent beam network capacity and performance optimization capabilities allow operators to leverage the benefits of 3G, LTE and WiMAX networks. Horizontal beamwidth variable technology frees network designers from partition selection constraints.

Interview with Dr. Hua Yanping, the reporter demonstrated the application scenario of the smart beam antenna system. At the intersection of regular congestion, the demand for the network can be preset in the base station control system through the program. When congestion occurs, the base station around the intersection can adjust the vertical time, horizontal and horizontal width of the antenna beam to adjust the time interval of the intersection, thereby improving the network capacity of the congestion section.

Antenna smart beam innovation wireless network

According to Dr. Hua Yanping, at present, the base station utilization rate of the carrier network is very uneven. For example, the business district has a relatively large network traffic for nine to five nights, and the traffic on the rest day is relatively small. Intelligent beam technology can intelligently adjust network capabilities for this situation, which allows operators to delay cell fission progress and reduce costs.

Dr. Hua Yanping said that the current smart beam base station antenna system is only for single frequency bands. In the future, Andrew will develop multi-band and products that can be shared by multiple bands. Andrew can not only provide a complete set of software and Hardware systems based on smart beam technology, but also strengthen cooperation with equipment manufacturers to jointly develop base station control platform.
