Antenna alignment in a non-line of sight condition

Abstract:

A method for alignment of an antenna in a microwave radio link system in Non-Line-Of Sight (NLOS) conditions. The method includes having a pointer indicating a first position on a surface to define a first candidate reflection/diffraction point on the surface, aligning a first antenna at a first node and a second antenna at a second node towards the first candidate reflection/diffraction point, and recording a relevant property concerning the channel quality between the first node and the second node via the first candidate reflection/diffraction point. The pointer may be a drone. Related devices and systems are disclosed.
