Abstract
The invention provides a device for simulating a multi-antenna radio channel, a module and a method. The device comprises channel modules for incorporating propagation effects into channel signals which represent radio signals propagating along propagation paths, which channel modules are electrically connected to neighbour channel modules for forming an (m,n) array configuration. The (m,n)channel module is configured to receive a first (m,n−1)channel signal and a second (m−1,n)channel signal and comprises: a processing resource for processing the first (m,n−1)channel signal according to a channel model, thus generating a processed (m,n)channel signal, and a combiner for combining the processed (m,n)signal and the second (m−1,n)channel signal, thus generating a second (m,n)channel signal. The (m,n)channel module is further configured to output the second (m,n)channel signal.
