We describe a simple multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) channel measurement system for acquiring indoor MIMO channel responses. Four configurations of the polarization diversity antenna, referred to as VVV, YYH, YVY and VHH, were studied in terms of the capacity of indoor MIMO systems. Measurements were taken for a 3×3 MIMO system in the 2.4 GHz band. In addition, the channel capacity, singular-value decomposition, and correlation coefficient were used to explain the effects of various polarization schemes on MIMO fading channels. We also propose an analysis method for polarization channel capacity; this method includes the normalization of the received power and polarization effect for different polarization schemes. The validation of the model is based upon data collected in both light-of-sight (LOS) and non-light-of-sight (NLOS) environments. From the numerical simulation results, the proposed analysis method was close to measurements made in an indoor environment
