Abstract :
In this paper we present the results of a MIMO wideband measurement campaign carried out in an indoor scenario with a carrier frequency of 2 GHz. The wideband and narrowband channel capacity and several channel parameters were evaluated from the measured data. The correlation between channel capacity and physical parameters as angle spread, coherence bandwidth, number and power of multipath components was analyzed. The analysis makes possible to characterize the "rich scattering environment", a prerequisite condition for high MIMO capacities.
