Base station and method for performing beam tracking in high-speed unmanned aerial vehicle communications

Abstract

A method of performing beam tracking in high-speed mobile UAV communications by a base station (BS) according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise an initial beam training step including an operation of confirming an initially estimated channel for a k-th UAV among a plurality of UAVs connected through an antenna, and an operation of confirming an mk-th column index that maximizes an absolute value of a beam domain channel as an initial AoA; and a beam tracking step including an operation of tracking an actual AoA by applying a KF to the initial AoA, and various other embodiments may be possible.
