Abstract :
The present paper describes the set-up for the measurement of MIMO (multi-input-multi-output) radio channels as part of the European project METRA (Multi Element Transmit and Receive Antenna). Inputs for the stochastic model described by Pedersen, Andersen, Kermoal and Mogensen (see IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference VTC 2000 Fall, Boston, USA, 2000) are extracted from the measurement results and fed into a COSSAP(R) block implementing this model. A good matching between the eigenanalysis performed on both measured and simulated signals is shown
