Abstract

A radio communication apparatus includes a plurality of antennas, a radio transmission unit configured to execute radio transmission processing on data to be transmitted from the plurality of antennas, and a processor connected to the radio transmission unit. The processor executes a process including acquiring beam group specification information that specifies a beam group that is capable of being formed when the data to be transmitted is transmitted, forming at least one beam included in the beam group, and correcting an envelope of a beam group using correction factors, the beam group including the at least one beam formed, the correction factors corresponding to the beam group specification information.

Claims (25)

1. A radio communication apparatus comprising:

a plurality of antennas;

a radio transmitter configured to execute radio transmission processing on data to be transmitted from the plurality of antennas; and

processor circuitry connected to the radio transmitter, and configured to:

acquire beam group specification information that specifies a beam group that is capable of being formed when the data to be transmitted is transmitted,

form beams included in the beam group, and

correct an envelope of the beam group using correction factors, the beam group including the beams formed, the correction factors corresponding to the beam group specification information.

2. The radio communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the correcting includes executing a matrix operation in which a plurality of pieces of data to be transmitted that correspond to the plurality of antennas are multiplied by a matrix of the correction factors.

3. The radio communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the correcting includes correcting the envelope of the beam group by multiplying pieces of data to be transmitted in a frequency domain by the correction factors.

4. The radio communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor circuitry is further configured to:

transform frequency-domain data to be transmitted into time-domain data to be transmitted, and

the correcting includes correcting the envelope of the beam group by multiplying the time-domain data to be transmitted by a correction factor.

5. A radio communication apparatus comprising:

a plurality of antennas;

a radio transmitter configured to execute radio transmission processing on data to be transmitted from the plurality of antennas; and

processor circuitry connected to the radio transmitter, and configured to:

acquire beam group specification information that specifies a beam group that is capable of being formed when the data to be transmitted is transmitted,

correct weighting factors for forming beams included in the beam group, using correction factors that correspond to the beam group specification information and change an envelope of the beam group, and

form beams for transmitting the data to be transmitted, using the corrected weighting factor.

6. The radio communication apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the correcting includes executing a matrix operation in which a plurality of pieces of weighting factors that correspond to the plurality of antennas are multiplied by a matrix of the correction factors.

7. A radio transmission method to be executed by a radio communication apparatus including a plurality of antennas, the radio transmission method comprising:

acquiring beam group specification information that specifies a beam group that is capable of being formed when data to be transmitted is transmitted from the plurality of antennas;

forming beams included in the beam group, and

correcting an envelope of the beam group using correction factors, the beam group including the beams formed, the correction factors corresponding to the beam group specification information.
