Abstract :
LTE drive tests were conducted in urban and suburban environments with 2×2 MIMO antennas located on the roof and also inside the vehicle. Measurements were conducted at bands 4, 13, and 17. The measured average channel capacities (bits/second) for the antennas placed inside the vehicle were found to be comparable to the measured capacities when the antennas were placed on the roof.
