Abstract
An antenna topology supporting multi beamforming for a large phase array antenna is provided herein. The antenna topology includes: one or more pairs of branches, each branch comprising a plurality of digital beamforming (DBF) integrated circuits (ICs) connected in series via a bus; one or more splitter/combiner (S/C) ICs connecting together each of the branches of the pairs; and one or more layers of further S/C ICs, wherein each of the further S/C ICs connects two of the S/C ICs on one end, and a modem or a further S/C IC of a different layer, on the other end, wherein each of the DBF ICs is coupled to two or more antenna elements via one or more radio frequency (RF) ICs, and wherein each of the DBF ICs comprises phase shifting circuitries, delay circuitries, memory circuitries, and bus controlling circuitries.
