Wireless Communication Cell Sites.

Wireless communication antenna may be housed in historic architectural structures or in esthetically enhanced free standing towers. The enhanced free standing tower provides the neighborhood with a pleasing focal point landmark, such as a "community gateway" clock tower,  or a traditional church campanile bell tower. Often, multiple wireless carriers may be housed within single structure, eliminating the need for multiple towers in a neighborhood.

Historical architectural structures are typically located in sensitive districts of the community, where it is difficult for a wireless carrier to establish free standing tower. To accommodate such locations, antenna may be located behind building cornice, steeple walls, by adding balustrades to parapets, or existing roof top curtail walls. The wall portion where the antenna are to be located, are replicated with pure fiberglass architectural elements using the historical materials as the mold pattern. Pure fiberglass is transparent to radio signals. (Georgia Institute of Technology, Antenna Technology Development Division,- Project Report A-5050).

Concept design also exist for antenna mounted in street clocks.
