By taking the time to refine measurement techniques to ensure the most accurate possible test results, we are now able to look at pushing the wind loading eficiency of base station antennas.
This white paper discusses how wind load, an important mechanical characteristic for base station antennas, is determined. It describes the three main methods used: numerical simulation, wind
Using a thorough understanding of the physics and aerodynamics behind wind load, we optimize the antenna design to minimize wind load. This involves using numerical methods such as computational
This inevitably adds to the weight, and wind force loading of the cellular antenna mount towers and support structures. The wind impinging on the antenna creates both static and dynamic...
Among wind load measurement tests, the wind tunnel test simulates the environment most similar to the actual natural environment of the product and therefore is the most accurate test method.
Once the cleats and base plate have been positioned and secured, fit the guy wires, lift the mast into position and tighten the guy wires. Please note that the supplied hardware and fixings are suitable for
Under today''s technical conditions, it is impossible to replace low-power base station equipment in a large area, and it is difficult to achieve major breakthroughs by reducing the effective power
Base station antennas add load to the towers not only due to their mass, but also in the form of additional dynamic loading caused by the wind. Depending on the aerodynamic efficiency of the
METHODS OF DETERMINING THE WIND LOAD There are three recognised methods for determining the wind load of base station antennas:
