Abstract

Abstract

The paper studies the capacity of a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system with correlated fading under the constrain of fixed space for the receiver UCA antennas. The fading correlation model is established and the impacts of the number of antennas and scattering angle on the channel system capacity are investigated. Based on the random theory, a closed-form expression for the channel capacity of an M by N MIMO system is derived. Analysis shows that the channel capacity of a MIMO system is mainly determined by eigenvalues of the fading correlated matrix. Simulation shows that the channel capacity is saturated when the number of antennas increases to a certain point.
