The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and communication method. The electronic device comprising a RF link unit radiating a data stream in form of electromagnetic wave radiation onto a phase shifter; a processing circuitry configured to determine an analog precoding matrix; phase shifters, each of which for performing analog precoding on the received signal of the electromagnetic wave radiation according to the determined analog precoding matrix, and an antenna array, each of antenna elements of which transmits the analog precoded signal, wherein the number of the phase shifters is the same as the number of the antenna elements of the antenna array, and the phase shifters and the antenna elements are in one-to-one correspondence.
