Abstract

A new high-speed aeronautical MIMO system is currently being considered for airport communications. We evaluate effectiveness of scale model experiment by comparing MIMO channel capacities around an aircraft between actual and scale model systems. The channel capacities of the scale model indicate a similar tendency to the actual aircraft in the whole band of the communication systems. Therefore, scale model experiments are effective for evaluating aeronautical MIMO systems.
