Abstract
The spatial correlation (SC) for a multipath environment based on a $2{\times}2$ MIMO system are computed on the observation planes in the Rayleigh/Rician fading channels inside a mode stirred chamber. The correlation coefficients were obtained and compared for different distances and orthogonal polarization between two transmit antennas. The proposed method is useful for quantifying the potential diversity gain in antenna diversity systems.
