Abstract
An example smart antenna mount may couple an antenna alignment device with an antenna. The smart antenna mount may include sensors such as strain gauges and accelerometers, and an electronic circuitry to communicate the measurements from the sensors. The measurements are received by the antenna alignment device, which may perform further operations to determine whether the coupling is within desired bounds. If within desired bounds, the antenna alignment device may generate an indication of a normal coupling, e.g., by activating a first colored (e.g., green) LED. If the coupling is outside the desired bounds, the antenna alignment device may indicate an alarm condition, e.g., activating a second colored (e.g., red) LED or generating an audible signal.
