Abstract

A radiation imaging apparatus, including a plurality of pixels, a plurality of column lines and a processor, the plurality of pixels including first pixels and second pixels configured to generate signals of different values by receiving radiation rays of equal irradiation rates, and the plurality of pixels being arrayed such that their numbers are different between a first column and a second column of the plurality of columns, wherein the processor, after radiation irradiation is started, obtains a first signal of the first column and a second signal of the second column while maintaining each pixel to an OFF state and performs AEC based on the first and second signals.
