Abstract
A technique for operating an antenna system includes using a downlink antenna to provide radio frequency information to a central antenna controller and adjusting operating parameters of the antenna system based thereon. In at least one embodiment of the invention, an apparatus includes a central antenna control facility configured to communicate at least one operation parameter to a first antenna facility associated with a first antenna in a first cell coverage area. The at least one operation parameter is determined at least partially based on information associated with a signal received from the first antenna by a downlink antenna in a second cell coverage area.
