Telecommunication towers, water supply towers, power grid towers, street light poles, monitoring poles… Various tower structures are indispensable infrastructure in cities. The phenomenon of “single tower, single pole, single purpose” is relatively common, resulting in a waste of resources and increased construction costs for a single purpose; the proliferation of telephone poles and towers and dense line networks may cause “visual pollution” and increase operating costs. In many places, communication base stations are now integrated with social poles and towers, sharing infrastructure to maximize resource utilization.

6.Communication tower and water tower combination

The general height is 25-50 meters, and the antenna position can be adjusted according to the water tower.

Applicable scene: signal blind area near water tower.

Advantages: Installing the antenna bracket directly on the existing water tower has low construction cost and short construction period.

Disadvantages: Water towers in urban areas are becoming increasingly rare, and very few are suitable for renovation.

7.Communication tower and billboard combination

The general height is 20-35 meters, and can be modified on the basis of existing billboards.

Applicable scenarios: signal blind areas where billboards are located.

Advantages: Installing antennas directly on existing billboards has low construction cost and short construction period.

Disadvantages: low aesthetics and difficult to adjust the antenna.

8.Communication tower and charging pile combination pole

The general height is 8-15 meters, which can be adjusted according to the local environment.

Applicable scenarios: residential areas, parking lots, and empty roadsides.

Advantages: The communication pole and charging pile are integrated, responding to the national call for energy conservation and environmental protection, providing charging services for the increasing number of electric vehicles, and providing continuous signal coverage in communities, squares, and roadsides.

Disadvantages: The signal coverage distance is limited and can be used as a signal supplement for large communication stations.

9.Communication tower and street light combination pole

The general height is 10-20 meters, which can be adjusted according to the local environment and style.

Applicable scenarios: densely populated areas such as urban roads, pedestrian streets, and public squares.

Advantages: Communication poles and street light poles are integrated to realize public lighting and provide signal coverage for dense crowds. The construction cost is relatively low.

Disadvantages: The signal coverage is limited and requires multiple street light poles for continuous coverage.

10.Communication tower and video surveillance combination pole

The general height is 8-15 meters, which can be adjusted according to the local environment and style.

Applicable scenarios: road intersections, company entrances, and areas where blind spots need to be monitored.

Advantages: The integration of communication poles and monitoring poles enables public monitoring of pedestrian and vehicle traffic, reduces crime rates, and provides signal coverage for pedestrian traffic at a relatively low cost.

Disadvantages: The signal coverage is limited and can be used as a signal supplement for large communication stations.

11.Combination of communication tower and landscape column

The general height is 6-15 meters, which can be adjusted according to the local environment and style.

Applicable scenarios: city squares, parks, and community green belts.

Advantages: The communication pole is integrated into the landscape column, which does not affect the beauty of the local environment and provides lighting and signal coverage inside the column.

Disadvantages: Limited signal coverage.

12.Communication tower and warning sign combination pole

The general height is 10-15 meters and can be adjusted according to the local environment.

Applicable scenarios: Areas that require warnings such as both sides of the road and the edge of the square.

Advantages: The communication tower is integrated with the environmental monitoring tower to provide guidance and warning to passers-by, while also providing continuous signal coverage.

Disadvantages: Limited signal coverage, requiring multiple warning signs for continued coverage.

13.Communication tower combined with green lighting

The general height is 0.5-1 meter, the antenna position is adjustable, and the coverage is upward.

Applicable scenarios: residential green belts, parks, squares, etc.

Advantages: It integrates green lighting, mosquito repellent, and communication signals. The night lights enhance the beauty of the green belt.

Cons: Limited coverage.

14.Combining communication towers with solar energy

It can be adjusted according to the height of the floor where the water heater is located.

Applicable scenarios: residential roofs, residential area roofs.

Advantages: Directly modify household solar water heaters or solar generators to increase antenna storage locations.

Disadvantages: Coverage is limited by building location.

15.Combination of communication tower and drone photography
