Abstract

See full text

A radio antenna alignment tool (100) for aligning a first antenna with respect to at least a second antenna is disclosed. The tool comprises a sensor unit (120) disposed in connection to the first antenna (110) comprising means to determine a present direction of the first antenna (110). The radio antenna alignment tool (100) further comprises guiding means (130) adapted to receive, on a first input port, the present direction of the first directive antenna (110) from the sensor unit (120). The guiding means (130) is further arranged to indicate to a user at least one of: the present direction of the first directive antenna (110), the location of the second antenna, and a preferred direction of the first directive antenna, where said preferred direction of the first directive antenna is determined in order to maximize a signal quality metric for communication between the first directive antenna and at least the second antenna. The tool facilitates the alignment of the first directive radio antenna without the user having direct visual contact with the far end antenna.
