Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique is one of the most promising solutions for increasing reliability and spectral efficiency of the radio connection in future mobile communication systems. The performance potential of MIMO systems is well established from theoretical point of view. However, much effort is still needed in the experimental verification of those systems using realisti...

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has been accepted as a promising technology for its potential to achieve low bit error rate (BER) by space time coding [1] or to achieve large capacity by multiplexing [2]. MIMO multiplexing has been widely adopted to realize high speed data communications. The capacity of MIMO systems in the point-to-point transmission without external interferences has be...

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna systems have been shown to be able to substantially increase date rate and improve reliability without extra spectrum and power resources. The increasing popularity and enormous prospect of MIMO technology calls for a better understanding of the performance of MIMO systems operating over practical environments. Motivated by this, this thesis provide...

The minimum phase systems have ultimately been redefined for LTI discrete-time systems, at first SISO and later square MIMO ones, as those systems for which minimum variance control (MVC) is asymptotically stable, or in other words those systems who have ‘stable’ zeros, or at last as ‘stably invertible’ systems. The redefinition has soon been extended to nonsquare discrete-time LTI MIMO systems...

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems are well known as a technique which allows increasing the throughput of a radio link and overcoming the effects of multipath fading. However, the integration of MIMO systems into the standards of wireless networks is slow, as there are numerous problems still unsolved. This PhD thesis deals with MIMO systems in slow and fast varying radio channels. ...

Signal-Perturbation-Free Semi-Blind Channel Estimation forMIMO-OFDM Systems Feng Wan, Ph.D.Concordia University, 2009 Multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) has been considered as a strong candidate for the beyond 3G (B3G) wirelesscommunication systems, due to its high data-rate wireless transmission performance.It is well known...

Multi-link MIMO systems, including multi-user MIMO and MIMO with base station cooperation, are essential parts of high-throughput wireless LANs and fourth-generation cellular systems. In order to fully understand such systems, the dynamic channel characteristics of multi-link MIMO channels have to be measured. In this paper we present a measurement setup that enables such measurements and does ...

— Interference alignment allows multiple users to share the same frequency and time resource in a wireless communications system. At present, two performance bounds, in terms of degree of freedom, have been proposed. One is for infinite-dimension extension and the other is for MIMO systems. This paper provides an understanding of the MIMO bound by examining its proofs and shows that it does not...

In this paper, we have investigated the application of non-binary LDPC codes to spatial multiplexing MIMO systems with a large number of low power antennas. We demonstrate that such large MIMO systems incorporating with low-complexity MMSE detector and non-binary LDPC codes can achieve low probability of bit error at near MIMO capacity. The new proposed non-binary LDPC coded system also perform...
