A fixture and a measurement system are provided. The fixture is adapted for electrically connecting a measurement device with a device under test, DUT, in particular a wireless DUT, and for mechanically holding the DUT.

A measurement system for testing a device under test is described, with at least two antennas, at least two reflectors, a signal generation and/or analysis equipment and a test location. Each of the antennas is assigned to a corresponding reflector. Each of the antennas is configured to transmit/receive an electromagnetic signal so that a beam path is provided between the respective antenna and the test location. The electromagnetic signal is reflected by the respective reflector so that the electromagnetic signal corresponds to a planar wave. The beam paths have different angular orientations that are adjustable. At least one antenna and the corresponding reflector are coupled with each other so that an integrated beam path adjustment unit is established including at least one antenna and the corresponding reflector. Further, a testing method is described.

Disclosed is herein an antenna performance tester including: a horizontal rotor 200 rotatable about a shaft part 110 to which a DUT holder 300 is detachably coupled; and a vertical rotor 500 to which a reference antenna holder 400 is detachably fixed and which is spaced apart from a side surface of the DUT holder 300, is installed perpendicular to the horizontal rotor 200, and is rotatable about a virtual central point lying at the center. The antenna performance tester is advantageous in that: a reference antenna measures an RF while performing transmission and reception with respect to a DUT in all directions at a constant distance from the DUT; extension and replacement are possible depending on a frequency to be measured; and an influence of reflected waves is minimized at RF measurement, antenna performance can be simply tested in an anechoic chamber or even in a semi-anechoic chamber.
