Abstract :
Performance of different antenna diversity techniques which can be applied in DECT is investigated. Test-equipment that complies with the DECT physical-layer (radio interface) has been developed in order to do measurements under real conditions. Diversity measurements were performed in three office buildings and two industrial buildings. We have concluded that antenna diversity (of a kind) must be employed in DECT to mitigate the effect of both fast fading and time dispersion
