Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed herein to provide communication test systems for the mobility testing of multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) radio frequency wireless data communication devices, systems and networks. In accordance with one or more embodiments, a test system containing an MU-MIMO traffic generator and analyzer is disclosed that includes a mobility effects scheduler operative in conjunction with a channel impairment simulator to perform tests related to mobile MU-MIMO devices such as wireless clients and terminals. Such a test system may offer improved capabilities, such as flexible measurements of mobility performance, more accurate assessments of MU-MIMO wireless channel utilization and data throughput, measurements on MU-MIMO devices under mobility stress, and automated measurements of MU-MIMO mobility testing.
