Abstract:
A distributed antenna system including a plurality of remote antenna units, a passive element coupled to at least one of the remote antenna units and an RFID system located proximate the passive element. The RFID system includes processing circuitry and measurement circuitry and the processing circuitry is configured for receiving an interrogation signal and processing the interrogation signal and providing a response. The response includes data associated with a measurement made by the measurement circuitry.
