Abstract

A communication device includes a service transmitter (Tx) configured to transmit a second beam of RF signals in a first radiation pattern to a user equipment (UE). The communication device further includes a control circuitry configured to: detect an amount and direction of echo signals at the donor receiver Rx corresponding to reflected RF signals in an environment surrounding a communication device; determine an installation location for the communication device based on echo signal measurements at one or more different locations; adjust polarization of the second beam of RF signals to minimize the echo signals at the donor receiver Rx based on the echo signal; and generate a second radiation pattern for at least the second beam of RF signals based on the amount and direction of the echo signals in the environment detected at the donor receiver Rx.
