And further, the signal-to-noise ratio value of each antenna is judged, and under the condition that the signal-to-noise ratio value of the antenna is smaller than the average signal-to-noise ratio value, the antenna is judged to be damaged and is not used any more subsequently. That is, according to the magnitude of the SNR, it is determined whether there is a case where the SNR is significantly lower than the average SNR, and if so, it indicates that the antenna is damaged and is not used any more subsequently.
For example: the SNR measurement results of the 4 antennas are average values of SNR _ meas ═ 3.985313.647613.164212.6080, -3.9853 significantly smaller than-3.985313.647613.164212.6080, respectively, and thus it is judged that the first antenna is damaged.
