Abstract

A MIMO channel measurement campaign with a moving mobile has been conducted in Vienna. The measured data will be used to investigate covariance matrices with respect to their dependence on time and frequency. This document focuses on the description of the evaluation techniques which will be applied to the measurement data in the future. The F-eigen-ratio is defined expressing the degradation due to out-dated covariance matrices. Illustrating the derived methods, first results based on the measured data are shown for a simple line-of-sight scenario.
