Abstract
An apparatus for beamforming of a terminal acquires sensing information from an internal sensor, confirms whether the terminal is positioned in a street canyon of a road, and if it is confirmed that the terminal is positioned in the street canyon of a road, uses the sensing information to form beams of each antenna.
Claims16
A method for beamforming of a terminal using a multiple antenna, comprising:
- acquiring sensing information from at least one internal sensor of the terminal;
- confirming whether the terminal is positioned in a street canyon of a road;
- and
- forming beams of each antenna using the sensing information if it is confirmed that the terminal is positioned in the street canyon of the road.

An apparatus for beamforming of a terminal using a multiple antenna, comprising:
- a sensing information acquirer acquiring a plurality of sensing information from at least one internal sensor;
- a position extractor confirming whether the terminal is positioned in a street canyon of a road using at least one first sensing information of the plurality of sensing information;
- a beamforming coefficient calculator calculating beamforming coefficients of each antenna for beamforming using the sensing information when the terminal is positioned in the street canyon of the road;
- and
- a beamformer forming beams based on the beamforming coefficients of each antenna.
