Abstract :
In this paper, we propose the computation of the envelope correlation (rhoe), the diversity system gain (DSG) and the mean effective gain (MEG) of two-antenna systems (with and without the neutralization technique) in indoor and outdoor environments from the simulated radiation patterns. The analysis of the results demonstrates the overall improvement brought back by the neutralization technique.
