Abstract: A method and apparatus for production testing of a device under test (DUT) in a chamber is disclosed, the chamber defining an internal cavity therein, adapted to enclose the DUT, and including walls having inwardly facing surfaces of an electromagnetically reflective material, thereby supporting several resonant modes within the internal cavity.

Abstract: A self-grounded antenna arrangement includes a base or central portion in a first plane and a number of arm sections associated with the central portion that taper toward a respective end tip. Each arm section is adapted to form a transition from the central portion and being bent backward toward the central portion by more than 180 degrees so that its end tip approaches a first side of the central portion, at an opening in the central portion. The end tip is connected to a feeder configured to feed, via an arm-section-specific port, one specific port for each arm section. Each arm section has a mixed functionality of a curved monopole antenna and a loop antenna, and the antenna arrangement provides substantially uncoupled ports with far-field functions that are almost orthogonal in polarization, direction, or shape. The arrangement finds use in multiple-input multiple-output antenna systems for statistical multipath environments.
