Abstract— Reliable channel estimation is an essential task in the development of receivers for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) finite ad hoc networks. The major problem in the estimation of channel coefficients in a MIMO ad hoc network is the interference from the other nodes. In this paper, channel estimation is performed for a finite MIMO ad hoc network where transmitter employs antenna...

This paper presents a new model for systems beyond 3G of cellular communication techniques. The proposed scheme includes several new techniques: multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), and smart antennas (beamforming). The performance analysis was done in an interference-rich environment, and closed form expression for SINR was also determined. ...

Wireless communication paradigm has evolved from single-user single-input single-output (SISO) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to multi-user (MU) MIMO counterparts, which are shown greatly improving the rate performance by transmitting to multiple users simultaneously. The sum-capacity and the capacity region of a single-cell MU MIMO downlink system or the so-called MIMO broad...

We theoretically study the performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) free-space optical (FSO) systems using subcarrier quadrature modulation (SC-QAM) signaling. The system average symbolerror rate (ASER) is derived taking into account the atmospheric turbulence effects on the MIMO/FSO channel, which is modeled by log-normal and the gamma-gamma distributions for weak and moderate-to-s...

This paper presents a physical scattering model that predicts multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel characteristics conforming well to experimental observations in macrocells. Our approach is to start with a given single-input single-output power-delay profile (defined for specific range, bandwidth and antenna parameters) and fit a scattering model that characterizes the MIMO channel. F...

This brief defines a new type of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) amplifier. We present basic structures for this MIMO series–series feedback amplifier (MIMO-SSFA), and the basic design equations. We provide a detailed example showing how this MIMO-SSFA may be used as a transmitting circuit for multiconductor interconnections.
