Antenna subset selection for MIMO wideband measured channels

In this paper presents the results of antenna selection for a MIMO wideband measurement campaign carried out in indoor scenario with a carrier frequency of 2 GHz. The amplitude and phase of the received signal were collected at 801 frequency values in the 200 MHz bandwidth. For each frequency, the best set of antennas was selected. The spatial selectivity was also verified shifting the receiver some wavelengths from the original position. The best antenna subset and frequency were jointly selected and analyzed for different environments. Besides, the radio block size and the antennas subsets distributions for different frequencies, positions and environments were evaluated as well.
