Abstract :
There has been a high focus latest years to investigate possible methods for Over-The-Air tests facilitating multi-antenna technologies. This paper presents a method of testing mobile device receive performance when the base station utilise transmit diversity (TM2) in the downlink. The method uses a reverberation chamber combined with a channel emulator, and results for three commercially available LTE devices are shown.
