Abstract
An antenna monitoring unit for monitoring an RF transmission line and RF signal path to an antenna unit used in a distributed antenna system in a structure. The antenna is DC isolated from the RF transmission line through a current injector, allowing testing by sending a code from a base station to a remote antenna location and using a monitoring module to confirm reception of the code and transmit data to the base station relating to the antenna unit.
