Duplex supporting apparatus and method in a base station system which
supports a multi-antenna are provided. The duplex supporting apparatus in
a base station system which supports K(.gtoreq.1)-ary sectors and
M(.gtoreq.1)-ary antennas per sector, includes a plurality of channel
cards for generating M-ary data to be sent to the M-ary antennas,
exchanging part of the M-ary data with other channel cards, constituting
a frame with part of the M-ary data and data received from the other
channel cards, and providing the generated frame to a corresponding Radio
Frequency (RF) module; and a plurality of RF modules for extracting the
M-ary data from a frame of a corresponding channel card among the channel
cards, RF-processing the extracted M-ary data, and feeding the processed
data to original sectors/antennas.
