Abstract

A communication device includes a base, a signal transceiver, a first antenna array and a second antenna array. The signal transceiver is configured to up-convert or down-convert the radio frequency signals. The first antenna array is disposed on the base and electrically coupled to the transceiver. The first antenna array is configured to receive or transmit a first radio frequency signal along a first orientation. The first radio frequency signal is transmitted between the first antenna array and the transceiver. The second antenna array is disposed on the base and electrically coupled to the first antenna array. The second antenna array is configured to receive or transmit a second radio frequency signal along a second orientation. The first radio frequency signal is transmitted between the second antenna array and the transceiver, via the first antenna array.
