Multi-user antenna telecommunication tower
First Claim
1. A multi-user antenna telecommunications tower comprising a base support, at least two antenna modules in vertical alignment each containing at least one antenna, an upper tower supporting said antenna modules, a cover of a RF transparent material enclosing said antenna modules, internal passage means between the upper tower support and the RF transparent cover sufficient for an operator to move from one module to another to make desired modifications to the antennas of said antenna modules.

Abstract
An enclosed multi-user telecommunications tower covering multiple antennas at various heights with communication passages allowing an operator to move internally between modules containing antennas. Individual adjustment and orientation of the antennas for each provider (or their replacement) is thus readily possible within the tower. The tower preferably comprises lower support modules of reinforced concrete and a steel tower for supporting the antenna systems. The latter is covered with a RF transparent skin covering of a fiber reinforced plastic. The communication means takes the form of an annular space between the steel tower support and the RF transparent skin covering wherein the multiple antennas are supported.

11. A multi-user antenna telecommunications tower comprising
(1) a base support (2) at least two antenna modules in vertical alignment each containing at least one antenna (3) a tower support for supporting said antenna modules (4) a RF transparent cover enclosing said modules from the external atmosphere (5) an internal annular space between the tower support and the RF transparent cover containing a ladder of sufficient dimensions to allow an operator to move easily about in the annular space from one module to another to make necessary modifications to the antennas of the antenna modules.
