Abstract
Standardization work for MIMO OTA testing methods
is currently ongoing, where a multi-probe anechoic chamber
based solution is an important candidate. In this paper, the
probes located on an OTA ring are used to synthesize a plane
wave field in the center of the OTA ring. This paper investigates
the extent to which we can approach the synthesized plane wave
in practical measurement systems. Both single plane wave with
certain AoA and multiple plane waves with different AoAs and
power weightings are synthesized and measured. Deviations of
the measured plane wave and the simulated plane wave field are
presented in terms of phase and power. Possible reasons for the
deviations are also investigated.
