Systems and methods for receiving MIMO signals for testing and analyzing operation of MIMO communications devices. Examples of systems and/or methods for receiving MIMO signals include a measuring receiver with N RF paths consisting of N downconverters. Each downconverter achieves a frequency shift of the input MIMO signal equal to a shifting frequency of a first intermediate frequency (IF) plus a delta determined by the signal bandwidth multiplied by an integer number between 1 and N. The shifted N MIMO signals are combined to generate one combined analog MIMO signal. An analog to digital converter converts the combined analog MIMO signal to a stream of digital samples where the samples may be tested and analyzed with metrics on signals communicated in a MIMO environment. Example systems and method for receiving MIMO signals may also be implemented as a MIMO channel emulator such that samples generated by the ADC may be upconverted to output copies of the original signals to a receiver DUT, for example.
