Abstract :
This paper presents a high precision testbed for evaluating antenna diversity techniques in an indoor environment. Details concerning mechanical, electrical and electronics hardware and associated measurement software are described. Initial measurement results for two Bluetooth modules operating with co-polar and cross-polar monopole antennas in the ISM 2.4 GHz band are given.
