Exact Closed-Form Expressions for the Distribution, the Level-Crossing Rate, and the Average Duration of Fades of the Capacity of OSTBC-MIMO Channels
Article from the journal: IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology Official site: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TVT.2008.927038 This paper deals with some important statistical properties of the channel capacity of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems with orthogonal space-time block code (OSTBC) transmission. We assume that all the subchannels are uncorrelated. For OSTBC-MIMO systems, exact closed-form expressions are derived for the probability density function (PDF), the cumulative distribution function (CDF), the level-crossing rate (LCR), and the average duration of fades (ADF) of the channel capacity. Furthermore, it will be shown that these exact closed-form expressions can be …
Capacity studies of spatially correlated MIMO Rice channels
In this paper, we have studied the statistical properties of the capacity of spatially correlated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Rice channels. We have derived an exact closed-form expression for the probability density function (PDF) and an exact expression for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the channel capacity for single-input multiple-output (SIMO) and multiple-input single-output (MISO) systems. Furthermore, an accurate closed-form expression has been derived for the level-crossing rate (LCR) and an accurate expression has been obtained for the average duration of fades (ADF) of the SIMO and MISO channel capacities. For the MIMO case, we have investigated the PDF,…
