  • Patent number: 8169376
    Abstract: The present invention relates to base station transmitting and receiving antennas and control methods thereof. For this purpose, the present invention provides a control method of a base station transmitting antenna. The control method includes collecting positional information and transmission level values of all terminals in a cell; analyzing statistics of cell traffic using the positional information and transmission level values, and generating antenna radiation patterns on the basis of the analyzed statistics result; optimizing the antenna radiation patterns by synthesizing beam patterns; and changing antenna beam patterns according to the optimized antenna radiation patterns. According to embodiments of the present invention, it is possible to increase a channel capacity in a cell, ensure the QoS in all terminals in the cell, and reduce installation and operation costs of a base station system.

  • Publication number: 20110028110
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a reconfigurable hybrid antenna device. According to the present invention, the reconfigurable hybrid antenna device includes a reflective plate that reflects an incident signal and a reconfigurable power supply arrangement that includes one or more element antennas for supplying power to the reflective plate. The reconfigurable power supply arrangement has characteristics of electrical reconfiguration and physical reconfiguration of the element antennas, and reconfiguration of changing a range of radiation of signal powers radiated from the element antennas. With these characteristics of reconfiguration, it is possible to simultaneously or independently provide a plurality of mobile communication services physically using one antenna, such that it is possible to have an economical base station antenna and considerably reduce the number of temporary base stations, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of base stations.
