Abstract:
A system for locating an optimal location of a reception antenna that has an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a wireless internet service provider (WISP) tower configured for transmitting radio signals, and an antenna removably coupled to the unmanned aerial vehicle, the antenna configured for receiving the radio signals. Further, the system has a processor for automatically flying the UAV to a height, for rotating the unmanned aerial vehicle at the height and detecting the radio signals from the at least one WISP tower as the UAV rotates to determine an optimal azimuth, and if the radio signals received are not conducive for the provision of wireless services at the height, the processor moves the UAV to different heights and rotates the UAV until radio signals received are conducive for the provision of wireless services thereby determining an optimal azimuth and location altitude range for a reception antenna.
