A reference signal generator generates a reference signal having high auto-correlation. A delay unit delays the reference signal to generate delayed reference signals and outputs the reference signal and the delayed reference signals to the transmission units, respectively. A calibration network combines the output signals of the transmission units. An analyzer analyzes a correlation between a demodulated signal and the reference signal to determine variations of timing, amplitude and a phase of the output signal of each transmission unit. Each transmission unit calibrates the timing, amplitude and phase of the output signal based on a corresponding determination result.
