Abstract
An array antenna device includes a classifying unit that classifies rotating devices into a plurality of groups with different priorities under the condition that the number of rotating devices included in one group is equal to or less than the number of rotating devices that is calculated by a number-of-drivable-devices calculating unit; and a rotation instructing unit that selects groups in descending order of priority from among the plurality of groups and drives, each time one group is selected, all rotating devices included in the group, and the classifying unit performs the classification in such a manner that, among the rotating devices, a rotating device that rotates an element antenna with a higher importance level is classified into a group with a higher priority.
