Spatial fading simulator using cavity-excited circular array(CECA) loaded with phase shifters

We proposed a spatial fading simulator using CECA loaded with phase shifter for performance evaluation of antenna arrays. The statistic investigation of received signal such as LCR and AFD are achieved for verifying Rayleigh fading. SCC of received signal is investigated for AS. Based on the statistical characteristics obtained from experiment, it is sure that CECA loaded with phase shifter works well as a spatial fading simulator.
