Abstract :
A multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) communications system model is described with reference to antenna measurements from a microwave network analyser. Results are presented which indicate the effect of a measurement error in a MIMO communications system. These results offer an indication of the degree of measurement accuracy required for a MIMO communications system to be a viable alternative to a conventional antenna communications system
