Abstract

A preselector forms a plurality of preselections, by generating, for each preselection, a predetermined number of random locations, each location being for an antenna element of the predetermined number of antenna elements around a device under test in an over-the-air test. A selector selects, for at least one path of a radio channel to be simulated, a preselection from among the plurality of preselections for which an absolute error between a theoretical and real spatial correlation is below a predetermined threshold. A connector connects the antenna elements at the locations of the selected preselection and the radio channel emulator together for physically realizing the simulated radio channel for the device under test and the radio channel emulator.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to over-the-air testing of devices in an echogenic chamber. Background technique [0002] When a radio frequency signal is transmitted from a transmitter to a receiver, the signal travels in a radio channel along one or more paths with different angles of arrival, signal delays, polarizations, and powers, resulting in the received Fades of different duration and strength in the signal. Additionally, noise and interference due to other transmitters can interfere with the radio connection. [0003] Transmitters and receivers can be tested using radio channel emulators that simulate real conditions. In digital radio channel simulators, the radio channel is usually modeled with an FIR filter (Finite Impulse Response). Traditional radio channel emulation testing is performed with a lead-through connection where the transmitter and receiver are coupled together by a cable.
