Abstract
The present invention relates to communication using multiple antennas, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for adaptively adjusting, based on a channel environment, an interval and direction of multiple antennas each of a transmitter and a receiver. A communication method according to the present invention may include verifying information about a channel state based on a pilot signal transmitted for each antenna of a transmitter, adjusting intervals among antennas of a receiver based on the information about a channel state, calculating transmission capacity values according to the adjusted intervals among antennas, and setting an antenna to an antenna interval corresponding to a transmission capacity having a highest value among the transmission capacity values calculated.
