Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a RF scanner system for mobile network testing. The scanner system comprises a switched directional antenna assembly, an RF receiver, and a positioning antenna assembly. The assembly includes several directional antennas oriented in different directions. The directional antennas are connected to at least one switch that is controlled by the RF receiver. The assembly is configured to receive a GNSS signal. The RF receiver is configured to receive the GNSS signal from the assembly. The RF receiver is configured to record information of the switching state of the switch. The RF receiver is configured to gather information of the position and/or bearing. The RF receiver is configured to combine the information of the switching state, a baseband signal and the information of the position and/or bearing, thereby generating output metadata. Further, a method of mobile network testing is described.
