Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a portable radio controller unit arrangement (1, 1A, 1B, 1C) that comprises an electrical power source (9) that is adapted to provide power to a microwave radio transceiver (3) that comprises a transmitter unit (13) and a receiver unit (15). The microwave radio transceiver (3) is comprised in a microwave link node (4) and is connected to a directive antenna (5) and to a signal cable (2). The radio controller unit arrangement (1) further comprises a user interface unit (8, 21) which is adapted to communicate with the microwave radio transceiver (3) such that the portable radio controller unit arrangement (1, 1A, 1B, 1C) is adapted to enable user control of the microwave radio transceiver (3) via the user interface unit (8).
Claims26
A portable radio controller unit arrangement that comprises an electrical power source that is adapted to provide power to a microwave radio transceiver that comprises a transmitter unit and a receiver unit, where the microwave radio transceiver is comprised in a microwave link node and is connected to a directive antenna and to a signal cable, wherein the radio controller unit arrangement further comprises a user interface unit which is adapted to communicate with the microwave radio transceiver such that the portable radio controller unit arrangement is adapted to enable user control of the microwave radio transceiver via the user interface unit.
A method for controlling a first microwave link node, the method comprising:
- connecting a first portable radio controller unit arrangement to a first microwave radio transceiver that is used in a first microwave link node and is connected to a first directive antenna;
- providing power to the first microwave radio transceiver using an electrical power source comprised in the first portable radio controller unit arrangement;
- and
- controlling the first microwave radio transceiver using an interface unit comprised in the first portable radio controller unit arrangement.
