Abstract
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining data regarding passive intermodulation (PIM) detected in a received communication signal, and performing polarization adjusting for a communications system such that an impact of the PIM on the communications system is minimized. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- a processing system including a processor and associated with an antenna system of a communications system;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
- obtaining data regarding passive intermodulation (PIM) detected in a communication signal received by the antenna system from at least one user equipment;
- and
- performing polarization adjusting for the communications system such that an impact of the PIM on the communications system is minimized when communications are transmitted or received via the antenna system.
A method, comprising:
- obtaining data regarding passive intermodulation (PIM) originating from one or more interference sources;
- and
- mitigating, by an adjusting mechanism associated with a communications system, the PIM by performing polarization adjusting and phase shifting for the communications system, the performing of the phase shifting comprising displacing first one or more radiating elements of an antenna system of the communications system along an axis of the antenna system.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor and associated with a communications system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
- receiving data regarding interference present in a received communication signal;
- and
- performing polarization adjusting and phase shifting for the communications system such that the interference is mitigated, the performing of the phase shifting comprising displacing first one or more radiating elements of an antenna system of the communications system along an axis of the antenna system.
