Abstract:
Apparatus and methods related to beamforming of harmonics are provided herein. In certain implementations, a communications device for operating in a cellular network is provided. The communications device includes a plurality of signal conditioning circuits configured to generate a plurality of transmit signals, an antenna array configured to radiate a transmit beam and including a plurality of antenna elements each thereof operatively associated with a corresponding one of the plurality of signal conditioning circuits, and a beam control circuit configured to control the plurality of signal conditioning circuits to provide beam steering of the transmit beam based on a direction of one or more harmonic lobes of the transmit beam.
