Abstract

A method and system for simulating a wireless environment is provided including a central RF combining component (110); a plurality of connection nodes (102), each connection node (102) in RF connection with the central RF combining component (110) through a programmable attenuation component (108); wherein the programmable attenuation components (108) are controlled by a controller console, the controller console maintaining information regarding simulated spatial positioning of the plurality of connection nodes (102) in the simulated wireless environment, and adjusting the programmable attenuation components (108) to appropriately simulate the simulated spatial positioning of the connection nodes (102) in the simulated wireless environment. Additionally, an RF module (448) for creating and receiving RF signals in a test environment is provided.
