6. An information processing apparatus, comprising:
a central processing unit (CPU) configured to:
acquire reception results of a first wireless signal and of a second wireless signal that are used in satellite positioning, wherein the first wireless signal and the second wireless signal being received by each antenna of a plurality of antennae in an array; and
estimate carrier-related information of at least one the first wireless signal or the second wireless signal controlled on a satellite side, based on the acquired reception results, wherein
each antenna of the plurality of antennae comprises:
a first antenna element and a second antenna element, wherein each of the first antenna element and the second antenna element is in a first direction;
a first receiver configured to receive the first wireless signal, via the first antenna element; and
a second receiver configured to receive the second wireless signal, via the second antenna element, and
among the plurality of antennae, a first antenna adjacent to a second antenna in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction are such that the first antenna element in one of the first antenna or the second antenna units is adjacent to the second antenna element in other of the first antenna or the second antenna in the second direction.
