  ABSTRACT: Small antennas characterization is tightly influenced by the measurement equipment as well as the scenario. In two port antennas isolation between ports, which is a clue factor to determine, is highly dependent on the final scenario also. To avoid these perturbing factors and obtain the complete S-parameter matrix of the antenna under test a wireless measurement setup has been developed. In this paper a contactless and autonomous small communication device is presented as a system able to characterize two port antennas based on the RCS measurement method. The system contains a microprocessor to control the frequency of the impedance modulation and two switches for changing the load impedance between the différent values used.
