In this paper we irrvestigate the capacity distribution of MIMO channels in the case of frequency flat independent Rayleigh faded paths between antenna elements. In particular, we derive a closed form expression for the characteristic function; from that the probability density function (p.d.f.) and the cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.) of the capacity for MIMO systems can be easily obtained. The expression is valid for an arbitrary number of transmit and receive antennas and allows an exact evaluation of the outage capacity for MIMO systems.

Abstract
In this paper we irrvestigate the capacity distribution of MIMO channels in the case of frequency flat independent Rayleigh faded paths between antenna elements. In particular, we derive a closed form expression for the characteristic function; from that the probability density function (p.d.f.) and the cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.) of the capacity for MIMO systems can be easily obtained. The expression is valid for an arbitrary number of transmit and receive antennas and allows an exact evaluation of the outage capacity for MIMO systems.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
