- the microwave device 100 communicates separately with the microwave antennas 6 in the same frequency band but in different directions. Because the radio frequency signal sent from the Lunberg lens antenna 130 is fan-shaped, the radiation area of the frequency band in the preset direction can be better realized by reasonably controlling the angle between the radio frequency modules 120 for sending and receiving radio frequency signals of the same frequency band cover.

- the reserved fixed position 141 may also be located at any position among the assembled multiple radio frequency modules 120 .
- the space for the fixed position 141 can be reserved for the radio frequency modules 120 to be added at the preset positions, and then the newly added radio frequency modules 120 can be inserted into the assembled radio frequency modules.
