Abstract :
The 4times4 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wideband channel response has been measured in a microcellular environment from 2.35 GHz to 2.55 GHz for 3 different antenna separation. A MIMO channel sounder based on a multiport network analyzer and a fast switch controlled by a laptop has been used. Results on capacity and correlation are presented. Two zones have been differentiated (NLoS and LoS). In the furthest positions of the NLoS zone a low capacity have been obtained.
