Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for fault mitigation in a base station are disclosed. According to an embodiment, a faulty antenna element in an antenna array is detected. The antenna array transmits a first beam covering a predetermined range of directions. A target direction in which radiation power dropped due to a fault of the detected faulty antenna element is determined. A second beam pointing to the determined target direction is generated.
