Abstract
In this paper, an evaluation of unwanted effects in Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) transmitters is described. Complete 2×2 and 4×4 MIMO Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) transmitters are simulated for the purpose of quantifying all potential unwanted effects such as Power Amplifiers´ (PAs) nonlinearity, linear and nonlinear crosstalk, and IQ modulator imperfections. An experimental analysis of a 2×2 MIMO transmitter using two-tones and WCDMA signal is presented.
