Abstract
A method and system for measurement of a device under test (DUT) are provided. According to one aspect, a system includes a first positioner having a first antenna and a second positioner having a second antenna. The system also includes circuitry configured to cause the first antenna to radiate a test signal to the DUT and to implement one of a probing mode and an interference mode. The probing mode causes, for each of at least one position of the first antenna, the second antenna to receive a signal from the DUT at each of the second set of positions of the second antenna. The interfering mode causes, for each of at least one position of the first antenna, the second antenna to transmit an interfering signal to the DUT at each of the second set of positions of the second antenna.
