10. An adjustment method of an antenna remote adjustment system, characterized in that the antenna electronic down tilt adjustment assembly of claim 1 is used, comprising the steps of:
receiving a target angle of an electronic downtilt of an antenna;
detecting the resistance value of the phase shifter transmission ruler at the current position;
obtaining a current electronic downward inclination angle according to the resistance value;
if the current electronic downward inclination angle is smaller than the target angle, the phase shifter transmission ruler is driven by the motor to move towards the direction of increasing the electronic downward inclination angle;
if the current electronic downward inclination angle is equal to the target angle, stopping the motor;
and if the current electronic downward inclination angle is larger than the target angle, the motor drives the phase shifter transmission ruler to move towards the direction of reducing the electronic downward inclination angle.
