Abstract

An antenna control system in a base station system, and a configuration method of the antenna control system are disclosed. A method of controlling antennas in a multi-ALD (Antenna Line Device) system including ALDs and ports linked with multiple base stations is provided including receiving configuration command by one of ALDs from one of base stations, transferring configuration command by the ALD that received configuration command to each of remaining ALDs, and setting an antenna for controlling or port for linking by each ALD according to the configuration command. In accordance with some embodiments, a multi-ALD system for controlling a plurality of antennas includes ports for linking with multiple base stations, respectively, and ALDs for controlling the antennas, wherein the ALDs are linked for intercommunications with each other, to set an antenna to control or a port to link according to configuration command received from one of the base stations.
