This presentation describes the experience and facilities for antenna measurement in the Radiation Group (GR), a research group of professors and students in the Polytechnic University of Madrid. The facilities described include three anechoic chambers, far field measurement acquisition and near field, spherical, cylindrical and planar field acquisition. Most of the software and many parts of the hardware has been developed in the GR. The experience in smart antenna measurement is also important. In particular, the experience in MIMO systems and MIMO channel measurement is one of the research lines in the Radiation Group.
