A novel and fast approach to relay station deployment is proposed using phased array antennas and passive direction of arrival. A phased array antenna with electric beam steering ability is used to communicate between the base station and relay station. In this paper, antenna design issues for the phased array antenna to be used by the relay station are described that exploits a new optically controlled phase shifter.enantenna arrayswireless networksphase shiftersorganic semiconductorsArticle
