Abstract
A method for installation and maintenance of cell site components on a cell tower with a robotic device includes causing the robotic device to traverse the cell tower to a desired location proximate to the cell site components; at the desired location and stabilized to the cell tower, causing manipulation components to perform one or more of installation and maintenance of the cell site components; and, subsequent to the one or more of installation and maintenance of the cell site components, causing the robotic device to scale down the cell tower.
