  • Patent number: 6697689
    Abstract: A method (102) of concealing a cell site radio frequency (RF) antenna (22) at a location (24) calls for generating a configuration (48, 62, 166) of an antenna screen structure (20) to determine geometrical parameters of the configuration. A set of instructions (108) are executed on a processor to evaluate the configuration (48, 62, 166) of the antenna screen structure (20). The instructions (108) direct the processor to perform operations that include defining geometrical parameters of the configuration (110), obtaining structural parameters of the configuration (112), receiving a wind load value for the location (114), and computing a maximum deflection value of the configuration in response to the geometrical parameters, the structural parameters, and the wind load value (128). In addition, the instructions (108) direct the processor to assess a cost (132) and a weight (130) of the configuration.
