Drone-Based Antenna Inspection
Antenna equipment on telecommunications towers and rooftop sites is subject to wind loading, UV degradation, corrosion, and physical damage from maintenance activities. Equipment condition directly affects network performance — a damaged radome, corroded connector, or misaligned panel antenna can degrade signal quality for thousands of subscribers.
Traditional antenna inspection requires a tower climber to ascend to each antenna level, visually inspect equipment, and document findings — a process that takes several hours per tower and carries inherent fall risk. Drone inspection achieves the same outcome in 20-30 minutes per site with zero climbing risk. Our high-resolution cameras capture detailed images from all angles around each antenna, revealing damage and condition issues that may not be visible from a single climbing position.
For Singapore's network operators maintaining thousands of antenna installations across the island — from urban rooftop sites in the CBD to standalone towers in industrial areas and rural coverage sites — drone inspection enables more frequent, more thorough, and safer equipment monitoring.
What We Inspect on Antenna Systems
Panel Antenna Condition
Radome integrity, mounting bracket condition, tilt mechanism operation, and physical damage assessment through multi-angle close-range photography.
RRU and Electronics
Remote Radio Unit mounting security, heat sink condition, cable connections, and weatherproofing assessed for each sector.
Cabling Infrastructure
Feeder cables, fibre optic runs, grounding conductors, and jumper cables checked for routing, clamping, weather boots, and physical damage.
Alignment Verification
Visual confirmation of antenna azimuth and tilt settings against design specifications, supporting network optimisation activities.
