Abstract

In this paper, a 4 × 4 indoor multiple-input multiple-output ultra-wideband (MIMO-UWB) measurement campaign in the 2-5 GHz bandwidth is presented. The aim of this work is analyze the effect of radio-wave polarization as well as the effect of frequency dependence on MIMO-UWB systems working in laboratories environment. To achieve this, many parameters such as the mean path loss, the RMS delay spread, and the system capacity are analyzed, taking into account polarization and bandwidth.
