Abstract
In a MIMO communication system that includes a transmitter and a receiver and forms line-of-sight orthogonal channels between the transmitter-side transmitting antenna and the receiver-side receiving antenna, the MIMO communication system is provided between the transmitting antenna and the receiving antenna with an optimum antenna-to-antenna spacing shortening unit to shorten an optimum antenna-to-antenna spacing by changing the phase rotation of a carrier wave used for directly opposed waves between opposed antennas, and the phase rotation of a carrier wave used for intersecting waves between oblique antennas in such a manner that the amount by which one of the phase rotations changes is different from that by which the other phase rotation changes.
