An antenna array calibration device and method thereof are provided. The method includes measuring the power total of the antenna array, controlling active components to adjust the antennas to having a maximum amplitude, controlling phase shifters to adjust the antennas to having a random phase, calculating the phase difference between an initial phase and a random phase, calculating the amplitude difference between an initial amplitude and the maximum amplitude, introducing the phase difference, the amplitude difference and the power total of the antenna array into a simultaneous equation of amplitudes and phases to obtain the initial amplitude and the initial phase of the antennas, and adjusting the phase of the antenna array if there is a real number solution of the equation, or otherwise adjusting the phase of the antenna array to another random phase to obtain a real number solution of the equation.
An antenna array calibration device, applied to an antenna array comprising a plurality of antennas, the antenna array calibration device comprises:
An antenna array calibration method, applied to an antenna array, wherein the antenna array is composed of a plurality of antennas, a plurality of phase shifters and a plurality of active components, each of the antennas is coupled to a corresponding phase shifter among the phase shifters and to a corresponding active component among the active components, and the antenna array calibration method comprises:
