The SMART (SMall Antenna Radiated Testing) range is a temperature controlled 7.15m x 6.25m x 6.25m anechoic chamber, providing a low reflection environment for the accurate characterisation of antennas over the range 400MHz to 26.5GHz (can be extended to 110GHz). Applications include electrically small antenna, smart antenna, MIMO and wireless communications. Measurements include:
- 3D radiation pattern (using either roll-over-azimuth or elevation-over-azimuth) with cable or unique non-invasive optical fibre solution
- Antenna and Propagation channel evaluation (i.e. with single-input-single-output (SISO), single-input-multiple-output (SIMO), multiple-input-single-output (MISO), multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) channel emulation capability up to 4 x 4 channel)
- Gain
- Directivity
- Radiation Efficiency
