Radio communication apparatus and antenna calibration method
Abstract:
A radio communication apparatus configured to perform frequency conversion on a first transmission signal modulated at a frequency in a specific frequency band into a second transmission signal having a frequency in a transmission frequency band, in which the apparatus includes: a circuit configured to generate a first calibration signal having a frequency higher than a highest frequency in the specific frequency band, and a second calibration signal having a frequency lower than a lowest frequency of the specific frequency band; a circuit configured to add the first and second calibration signals to the first transmission signal; a circuit configured to estimate a phase at a center frequency in the specific frequency band of the first transmission signal, and output a phase correction coefficient corresponding to the estimated phase; and a circuit configured to correct the phase of the first transmission signal, based on the phase correction coefficient.
