Abstract

A test system for over-the-air testing is described, the test system comprising a measurement antenna, a power combiner, and a mixer. The measurement antenna is a multiple polarization antenna that is configured to measure signals with at least two different polarizations. The measurement antenna has a first measurement port and a second measurement port via which a first signal portion and a second signal portion are provided, respectively. The power combiner has a first input port and a second input port. The power combiner is directly connected via its first input port with the first measurement port of the measurement antenna unit. The mixer is connected with the measurement antenna via the second measurement port. The mixer has an output port via which the mixer is connected with the second input port of the power combiner. Further, a method for over-the-air testing is described.
