WHITE PAPER ON UAV BASED TRANSMIT ANTENNA MEASUREMENT SYSTEM
LS of South Africa, part of the International LS telcom group with Headquarters in Lichtenau Germany, had the privilege to embark on a Cross Country UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) Antenna Radiation Pattern Measurement Campaign in the United States of America in partnership with its local LS US office, based in Bowie, Maryland.
The project was awarded to LS telcom US, to measure Frequency Re-Packed TV stations. These measurements were done mainly for TV Broadcast Repack antennas. The main purpose for these measurements is to conclude that the stations are functioning as expected and that the actual measured antenna patterns match the theoretical patterns for the planned coverage area.
