Recently, I maintained the local equipment. The antenna was moved from position A to position B. The horizontal distance between A and B is only 3 meters, and position B is 2 meters higher than position A.
As a result, the signal strength in some towns and cities in a mountainous area that were previously weak has improved. However, the main urban areas and several surrounding plains counties that were previously functioning normally have now experienced significant degradation.
After several attempts and much deliberation, as the technical lead for the relay station, I considered various factors and solutions. Suddenly, an idea struck me: could we set up multiple antennas in different directions, similar to how a distributed indoor system works, to ensure that both mountainous rural areas and urban centers have access to the signal?
Are there any teachers who use an application like the one in the picture? I'd like to share experiences and learn from each other. I have used a similar scheme before when building private networks (such as commercial DMR systems, mobile communication or internal network distribution systems), but typically involved using multiple devices with a single antenna. Can I stably operate this reverse setup on my own?
Can two antennas simultaneously transmit a dual-band UV signal? How does the reception at a distant location differ compared to using a single antenna (with a splitter output)? I welcome everyone to discuss this...
I believe the biggest bottleneck is the insertion loss of various connectors… The compensation from dual antennas is not as effective as the attenuation caused by insertion loss.😅
