Abstract
One or more embodiments provide a method for controlling array antenna device in a base station (BS) in a communication system. The method includes determining whether to perform a calibration operation for BSs while operating in one of a normal mode and an interference control mode. The method also includes transiting from the one of the normal mode and the interference control mode to a calibration mode based on the determining result of whether to perform the calibration operation for the BSs. A reference antenna among antennas included in the array antenna device is used in all of the normal mode, the interference control mode, and the calibration mode.
