What is AISG?

The roll-out of 3G systems has accelerated the use of antenna line products with digital remote control and monitoring facilities. The Antenna Interface Standards Group has created open specifications for the control interface for these devices. Future developments of the specification are expected to extend the range of devices and the available command syntax.

AISG v2 is consistent with the 3GPP standards for RET antennas (TS 25 460 - TS 25 463) but extends these documents to include additional implementation standards and a control interface for TMAs. Extension Standards extend the AISG standard to include a wider range of equipment.

Current version of the standard:             AISG v2.0    (13 June 2006)
Extension Standards:
          Remote azimuth steering             
AISG ES-RAS v2.1.0  (11 Dec 2007)
          Remote azimuth beamwidth        
AISG ES-RAB v2.1.0  (11 Dec 2007)

Previous version of the standard:           AISG1 v1.1  (30 July 2004)

Please send any comments on the specification to the Chairman and they will be brought to the attention of the Group. Members, please post your comments to the Forum.
