Systems and methods for mapping remote electrical tilt components and antenna ports of a cellular tower based on return loss associated with antennas of the cellular tower

Abstract

A device may cause a change for each remote electrical tilt component of a plurality of remote electrical tilt components associated with a plurality of antennas of a base station. The device may receive a set of return loss values associated with the plurality of antennas, based on causing the change for each remote electrical tilt component of the plurality of remote electrical tilt components, to generate a plurality of sets of return loss values. The device may calculate statistical measures for return loss values of the plurality of sets of return loss values. The device may identify port identifiers for the ports associated with the plurality of antennas based on at least in part on comparing the statistical measures for the return loss values of the plurality of sets of return loss values with a threshold. The device may generate a mapping of remote electrical tilt identifiers associated with the plurality of remote electrical tilt components and the port identifiers for ports associated with the plurality of antennas based on identifying the port identifiers for the ports associated with the plurality of antennas. The device may cause the mapping to be implemented by the plurality of remote electrical tilt components and the ports associated with the plurality of antennas.
