Abstract

See full text

An object of the present invention is to provide an antenna control system and a method capable of consistently maintaining an optimum orientation point between a donor antenna and an adjacent base station. The antenna control system for receiving a signal from a base station includes a donor antenna including an antenna module disposed by being fixed to an inner side of a window glass and configured with an array antenna; a phase shifter including a plurality of transmission lines; and a phase controller configured to control the phase shifter to change an orientation direction of the antenna module; and a repeater including a measuring module for measuring a reception signal received by the antenna module; an analyzing module for analyzing a signal quality parameter in each orientation direction of the antenna module based on a measurement result of the measuring module; and a generating module for generating an antenna control signal for controlling the orientation direction of the antenna module based on an analysis result of the analyzing module.
