Capacity and Performance of MIMO systems for Wireless Communications

Abstract

This paper presents the capacity performance of multiple antennas for wireless communication systems. Multiple antennas structures can be classified into single-input multiple-outputs (SIMO), multiple-inputs single output (MISO), and multiple-inputs multiple-outputs (MIMO) systems. Assuming that the channel is unknown at receiver, capacity expressions are provided for each structure. Our results also show that increasing the number of transmitting and receiving antennas for a wireless MIMO channel does indeed improve the channel capacity that can be obtained
