Abstract: A method of processing the measurements of the user equipment (UE) antenna pattern for Multiple input Multiple Output (MIMO) Over-the-Air (OTA) testing consistent with the UE performing antenna pattern measurements using radiated test methods subsequent to conducted testing where the measured radiation pattern is then utilized. The method involves antenna pattern measurements which do not take into consideration the impact of radiated interference. For the MIMO OTA method it is necessary to estimate UE self-interference so that it can be accounted for during one phase of the throughput measurement process. A preferred method and a system in a packet switched data transfer system for antenna pattern measurements. A multiple Rx antenna UE is provided. A multiple Rx antenna UE includes a processor configured to promote antenna pattern measurements of a signal strength from a network component to the multiple Rx antenna UE.
