Fast Converging Measurement of MRC Diversity Gain in Reverberation Chamber Using Covariance-Eigenvalue Approach

Journal article, 2011

In this paper, we show that the covariance-eigenvalue approach converges much faster than using cumulative distribution function (CDF) for determining diversity gain from channel measurements in reverberation chamber. The covariance-eigenvalue approach can be used for arbitrary multi-port antennas, but it is limited to Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC).
