Mode-Stirred Chamber Sample Selection Technique Applied to Antenna Correlation Coefficient

Abstract EN

Mode-stirred chambers provide an excellent tool for antenna characterization.

Recent research has focused on making the mode-stirred chamber technique more versatile.

One result of these efforts is the sample selection technique, by which a subset of data with specific properties is extracted from a measured set of raw data.

This paper presents how to apply the sample selection technique to measurements of the correlation coefficient in dual antenna measurements, for example, for diversity or MIMO applications.

Theoretical background and useful mathematical relations are presented.

The application is verified through measurements.
