Abstract :
Active Antenna Systems embed into one equipment only everything between Base Band processing and signals radiated over the air. It is a new technology for the mobile communications market whose testing requires well-known measurement techniques to be revisited, new ones to be invented and trials are worth being done. Current paper summarizes Telecom Italia experience in that field, after having worked on it for a few years.
