Evaluation of multi element antennas in reverberation chamber

This paper focuses on the latest advances in the use of reverberation chambers for active device testing. Contained are description and comparison of different figure-of-merits that are applicable to multi element antennas, with a specific focus on LTE devices with MIMO capability. There are two new parameter concepts introduced: Modified Total Isotropic Sensitivity measurements to include MIMO signaling, and a Throughput Threshold Level for simplified quantification of data bit throughput measurement results.
