This paper presents a method of implementing a 4 × 4 correlation matrix for evaluating the uplink channel properties of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antennas using an over-the-air measurement system. First, the implementation model used to determine the correlation coefficients between the signals received at the base station (BS) antennas via the uplink channel is described. Then, a methodology is introduced to achieve a 4 × 4 correlation matrix for a BS MIMO antenna based on Jakes' model by setting the initial phases of the secondary wave sources in the two-dimensional channel model. The performance of the uplink channel for a four-element MIMO terminal array antenna is evaluated using a two-dimensional bidirectional fading emulator. The results show that the measured correlation coefficients between the signals received via the uplink channel at the BS antennas using the proposed method are in good agreement with the BS correlation characteristics calculated using Monte Carlo simulation and the theoretical formula, thereby confirming the effectiveness of the proposed method.
