Abstract

Measurements on communication devices for evaluation of diversity and/or MIMO concepts must be made in the real environment or in a model of the real propagation environment. As a first step towards a complex, physical environment model the plane wave angular distribution, incident on the device under test (DUT), is altered in order to model plane wave angular distributions of real environments. Here a specialized Reverberation Chamber called the Scattered Field Chamber (SFC) is used to create a source of Rayleigh faded plane waves and a shielded, anechoic box with apertures is used to alter the angular distribution of the plane waves incident on the DUT. According to the measurements made, the model seems to be able to produce data that show agreement with measurements made on real propagation environments.
