Abstract :
This paper presents the experimental study of a multisensor receiver for mobile communications. A five sensors receiver is described. Its aim is the measurement of received signals on several sensors for characterization and test of diversity algorithms. Measurements were made with different antennas arrays, locations and data rates. Results are obtained for a data rate equal to 200 kbit/s. The signal to noise ratio obtained on the sensors is evaluated and compared. An implementation of a blind adaptive algorithm is proposed and finally, its performance is examined on the measured data
