Antenna device
An antenna device includes a substrate and a plurality of antenna elements arranged in an array. The substrate has a driving circuit. The driving circuit defines a frame rate N and a refresh time, wherein the sum of N refresh times is 1 second. The antenna elements are arranged on the substrate and are electrically connected to the driving circuit. The antenna elements jointly define a beamforming in each refresh time (1/N second), and the beamforming defines a signal, which includes a carrier frequency that is not less than 10 GHz and a characteristic information for communicating with a satellite. M consecutive beamformings contain two or more kinds of the characteristic information, wherein M is an integer not greater than 20.
