Abstract
Devices for testing a DUT having a circuit coupled to an antenna are disclose. The device can include a DUT location, a probe, and a ground area configured to serve as an antenna ground area for the antenna of the DUT. The ground area includes a slot that the antenna feed impedance is not affected or not affected significantly. The probe is adapted to weakly couple to the antenna of the DUT via the opening to probe a signal when the antenna of the DUT is fed by the circuit of the DUT and/or in order to couple a signal to the antenna which is fed to the circuit of the DUT by the antenna.
