The present disclosure relates to a method of selecting representative measurements from among measurements related to an environment around a movable object and determining whether the representative measurements are associated with landmarks to realize SLAM and an electronic apparatus for the same. One or more of an electronic apparatus, a vehicle, and an autonomous vehicle of the present disclosure may be connected to, for example, an artificial intelligence module, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a robot, an augmented reality (AR) device, a virtual reality (VR) device, or a 5G service device.

Electronic apparatus and method for implementing simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)

A method of calculating a moving distance of a movable object in consideration of a bias identified based on a linear velocity of the movable object in the process of implementing a SLAM, and an electronic apparatus therefor are provided. One or more of an electronic apparatus, a vehicle and an autonomous vehicle disclosed in the present invention may be connected to an artificial intelligence module, a drone (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV), a robot, an augmented reality (AR) device, a virtual reality (VR) device, a device related to 5G service, and so on.

A method and apparatus for selecting a beam direction is for use in a beamforming system. The beam direction selection method of a reception device having a plurality of antenna elements in a wireless communication system using beamforming according to the present disclosure includes acquiring a first reception beam angle estimated as optimal by allocating a first predetermined number of antenna elements to each of beam ports and scanning signals and acquiring a second reception beam angle estimated as optimal by allocating a second predetermined number of antenna elements, which is greater than the first predetermined number, to some of the beam ports and scanning the signals using the first reception beam angle. The beam selection apparatus and method of the present disclosure is capable of selecting a reception beam direction efficiently in a beamforming system.

Beam direction selection method and apparatus for use in beamforming system

A method of forming a beam-link by a Base Station (BS) in a wireless communication system using a beamforming scheme includes determining at least one downlink beams to be used for downlink transmission and/or reception, transmitting a reference signal to a Mobile Station via the at least one downlink beam, receiving the reference signal via an uplink beam from the Mobile station, and updating the at least one downlink beam to increase a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). Accordingly, a beam-link using an initial beam-link between the BS and the MS and adaptive beamforming can be rapidly constructed in a high frequency band BDMA cellular system.

Method and apparatus for fast beam-link construction in mobile communication system

A method and apparatus for splitting signals received via a plurality of antennas. A signal split apparatus of the present disclosure includes a first antenna which receives a first input signal, a second antenna which receives a second input signal, a first phase shifter which shifts phase by applying a first modulation frequency to the first input signal, a second phase shifter which shifts phase by applying a second modulation frequency to the second input signal, a summer which sums the phase-shifted first and second input signals, and an analog-digital converter which converts the summed signal to a digital signal, wherein the first and second modulation frequencies are different from each other. The signal split apparatus and method of the present disclosure is capable of splitting signals efficiently.
