Tutorial Title:

MIMO System for wireless communications

Presenter(s):

Leila Musavian

Affiliations:

Centre for Telecommunications Research, Kings College London, UK

Overview:

In this tutorial we provide an overview of information theoretic limits of MIMO systems under realistic assumptions for time-varying channels. We consider multiple definitions of capacity (i.e. ergodic and outage capacity) and many channel fading models (i.e. antenna correlation). We begin with a comprehensive summary of capacity results for single user MIMO channels under different fading models. We will then review some results in the areas of diversity, space time coding and transmitter optimization. Next we consider multi-user MIMO systems including cellular systems and Relaying channels ad-hoc networks. We also look into WiMAX systems as a standard using MIMO system.
