Patent ID: 10250303

Abstract:
The invention provides a selection circuit and method of multiple input/output ports and antenna sub-arrays for reconfigurable hybrid beamforming. The selection circuit includes a plurality of digital signal processing modules, each electrically connected to a respective input/output port, a plurality of analog front end (AFE) and radio frequency (RF) chains, each electrically connected to a respective digital signal processing module, a plurality of multiplexing circuits, each electrically connected to any number of the AFE and RF chains, and a plurality of antenna sub-arrays, each electrically connected to a respective multiplexing circuit, wherein the multiplexing circuits set any number of the antenna sub-arrays to transmit/receive any number of electrical signals of input/output ports transmitted by the AFE and RF chains. The invention further provides a signal processing and transmission/reception system and a combination selection method of multiple input/output ports and antenna sub-arrays based on the selection circuit.
