Abstract

A measuring system for measuring properties of a device under test over the air comprises an antenna array, adapted to receive first measuring signals from the device under test, a measuring device adapted to process the first measuring signals received by the antenna array, and to generate second measuring signals and transmit them to the device under test, using the antenna array. The measuring device comprises a quiet zone generator, which is adapted to perform a beamforming of the first measuring signals after reception by the antenna array. It is preferably also adapted to perform a beamforming on the second measuring signals before transmission by the antenna array. The quiet zone generator is adapted to apply the beamforming, so that at least one adjustable quiet zone is achieved.
