Abstract
There is provided to an RF calibration apparatus and method for a multi-antenna mobile communication system, which calibrates a phase error and gain error of an RF path by calculating the minimum value of a sum of an initialized reference signal and a comparison signal by a simple operation and controlling the phase value of a phase converter and the gain of a variable amplifier on the RF path, in calibrating the RF path of a multi-antenna mobile communication system of a TDD (Time Division Duplexing) type or FDD (Frequency Division Duplexing) type.
