Abstract
A relay system includes: one or more radiation units configured to form a beam in a predetermined direction by radiating radio waves from each of a plurality of elements; a detection unit configured to detect a physical environment on a radio wave propagation path that affects the beam formed by the radiation unit; a direction determination unit configured to determine a direction in which the radiation unit should form the beam based on the physical environment detected by the detection unit; a phase calculation unit configured to calculate a phase of radio wave to be radiated by each of the plurality of elements such that the radiation unit forms a beam in the direction determined by the direction determination unit; and a phase control unit configured to control the phase of the radio wave radiated by each of the plurality of elements based on the phase calculated.
