PARASITIC ELEMENT CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SINGLE RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) CHAIN-BASED ANTENNA ARRAY

摘要

Parasitic element control apparatus and method for a single radio frequency (RF) chain-based antenna array. The apparatus includes an arranger configured to arrange antenna elements, each including a single active element and a plurality of parasitic elements, and generate an antenna structure, a designer configured to design a control parameter for controlling the parasitic elements based on the antenna structure, and an adjuster configured to adjust the parasitic elements based on the control parameter.
