Antenna tower
First Claim
1. A tower for carrying at least one antenna, comprising tubular tower sections having a generally ring-shaped cross section, which are mounted to each other in series, one on top of the other, wherein the tubular sections are adapted to receive cables connecting the at least one antenna with electronic equipment (RBS, R) associated with the at least one antenna;
- wherein at least one of the tubular sections is provided with attachments for the at least one antenna;
one of the tubular sections is a bottom section comprising substantially vertical side walls and being adapted to accommodate the electronic equipment (RBS, B) and accessible from the outside;
one of the tubular sections is a connecting section having a substantially frusto-conical shape and being provided between the bottom section and the lowermost one of the remaining tubular tower sections; and
the remaining tubular sections have a cross section becoming gradually smaller towards an upper end and wherein each tubular tower section consists of a steel plate bent to the tubular shape.
