This paper addresses the problem of designing the colocated antenna array response for two applications: diversity reception using maximum ratio combining and MIMO communication capacity, and evaluates the performance of two opposite extremes in terms of design: very selective beamspace type of operation versus spatially allpass antennas.
Abstract
We report on in this paper is motivated by the drive towards antenna array miniaturization: going from an array of identical antennas that get spread out in space towards an array of colocalized antennas with differing responses. We address the problem of designing the colocated antenna array response for two applications: diversity reception using maximum ratio combining and MIMO communication capacity. The design criteria are derived under specific models regarding the distribution of the parameters of the frequency flat channel. We are particularly interested in evaluating the performance of two opposite extremes in terms of design: very selective beamspace type of operation versus spatially allpass antennas. We also show that the pathwise channel model converges for large number of paths to the stochastic channel model with separable correlation between TX and RX sides.

Systems and methods to coordinate transmissions in distributed wireless systems via user clustering

TL;DR: In this article, link quality measurements between a target user and a plurality of distributed-input-distributed-output (DIDO) distributed antennas of base transceiver stations (BTSs) were used to define a user cluster, and the channel state information (CSI) between each user and each DIDO antenna within a defined user cluster was measured.

MIMO wireless channels: capacity and performance prediction

TL;DR: A new model for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) outdoor wireless fading channels is presented which is more general and realistic than the usual i.i.d. model and it is shown that even at long ranges high channel rank can easily be obtained under mild scattering conditions.
