Over-The-Air (OTA) Measurement Method for MIMO-enabled Mobile Terminals ; Over-The-Air (OTA) Messverfahren für MIMO-fähige mobile Endgeräte
Over-The-Air (OTA) test methods for performance evaluation play an important role in the certification process of commercial User Equipment (UE) and for admission of UE to cellular networks. Novel OTA test methods and metrics are required for state-of-the-art mobile communication standards such as 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) due to the extensive use of Multiple Input – Multiple Output (MIMO) transmission techniques. The variety of different MIMO operating modes and the almost unlimited choice of possible multi-path channel conditions under which UE performance may be evaluated is not accounted for by established Single Input – Single Output (SISO) OTA performance metrics like Total Isotropic Sensitivity (TIS) and Total Radiated Power (TRP). As pointed out in this dissertation, meaningful metrics and cost effective, low complexity measurement methods can nevertheless be derived by focusing on characterization of the physical attributes of UE and by adopting statistical metrics. Starting from an overview of existing OTA measurement methods for SISO devices, extensions which are necessary to evaluate UE performance in the different MIMO operating modes which are foreseen in the 3GPP LTE standard are discussed. Relations between UE implementation attributes and the UE performance which is observed in different MIMO operating modes are derived using generic antenna and propagation models. Based on these models existing proposals for OTA test methods are reviewed. Their suitability and the relevance of different implementation aspects therein are discussed. The main result of this dissertation is a novel MIMO OTA test plan which focuses on the characterization of relevant UE attributes and meets the goals of low complexity and high reproducibility. Two complementary metrics and corresponding measurement procedures for evaluation of MIMO OTA performance are developed in order to address the diversity of possible propagation scenarios. The theoretical results are supported by ...
