An antenna system for tower-top installation includes an antenna array of M×N antenna elements, a corporate feed for operatively interconnecting said antenna elements, a backhaul channel for communicating with ground-based equipment, and radio frequency circuits for processing radio frequency signals between the antenna array and a backhaul link. The radio frequency circuits include substantially all of the circuits required for the processing of radio frequency signals between the antenna array and the backhaul link.
