Abstract :
Antenna diversity in mobile terminals is likely to be commonly used in future mobile communication systems. Methods for characterisation of antenna diversity performance are therefore of interest. Previous work has demonstrated diversity performance measurements in typical indoor and outdoor environments. A new characterisation method using a mode stirred chamber, with several advantages over existing techniques, is proposed
