First Claim
1. A system for evaluating antenna installations in a mobile radio communication system with more than one antenna element to in radio base stations of the system, wherein the received signal strength at the respective antenna element from a number of transmitting units are measured by means in the base stations, characterized in that the signal strength values from each antenna element of one or several of said base stations are compared in a calculating unit and that a plurality of comparison results are represented as a function of the comparison result and a parameter related to the position of the measured mobile stations relative to the location of the base station.

Abstract
Expert system for evaluating diversity antenna installations. Antenna elements 11a. 11b have the respective coverage areas 32a and 32b. Due to an antenna mismatch the diversity is degraded or even lost for reception from mobile stations 13, 33 especially far from the antenna. By measuring the received signal strength. RXLEV, difference from the mobile stations in the respective branches of the diversity antenna the mismatch could be evaluated and corrected. By dividing the coverage areas into several zones with different distance to the antenna the result is enhanced.

10. A method for evaluating antenna installations in a cellular mobile communication system wherein one or several radio base stations of the system, each having more than one antenna element, measures the signal strengths from a number of mobile stations in the cell, characterized in that the received signal strength values are compared with each other and that the number of such comparison results are evaluated as a function of the comparison result and a parameter related to the position of the mobile stations in the cell.
