Abstract :
This paper presents a new simulation tool to compare and evaluate the performance of different antenna diversity concepts in COFDM based radio systems. After a detailed description of the simulation flow, simulation results are compared to theoretical values in order to validate the tool. The system is applied for a comparison of classic diversity techniques in a fast fading scenario.
