An analysis of MIMO antenna system in the development of LTE (Long Term Evolution) terminal and the compensation of user’s induced loss is presented in this paper. MIMO wireless systems have antenna arrays at both the transmitter and receiver terminals. Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology has been regarded as a practical approach to achieve significant increase of wireless channel ...

MIMO technologies with OFDM air interface lead to a very compelling high-speed data transmission for future wireless systems. Since performance verification of MIMO system is important, Software Based Radio(SDR) -based MIMO testbed becomes essential to validate the theoretical performance gain. In this paper, we present SDR-based MIMO testbed system developed in the framework of SK Telecom. The...

The phenomenon of ducting is caused by abnormal atmospheric refractivity patterns, and is known to allow electromagnetic (EM) waves to propagate over the horizon with unusually low propagation loss. It is unknown what effect ducting has on multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channels, particularly its effect on multipath propagation in MIMO channels. A high accuracy angle-of-arrival (AoA) and...

Bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) is a robust multiplexing technique for achieving multiplexing gain in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. However, in order to benefit maximally from the various advantages offered by BICM-based MIMO-OFDM systems, availability of accurate MIMO channel state information (CSI) at the receiver end ...

Properties and potential applications of the block pulse response circulant matrix (PRCM) and its singular value decomposition (SVD) are investigated in relation to MIMO control and identification. The SVD of the PRCM is found to provide complete directional as well as frequency decomposition of a MIMO system in a real matrix form. Three examples were considered: design of MIMO FIR controller, ...

This paper focuses on Multiple-Input MultipleOutput (MIMO) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems, where the MIMO channel order is larger than the length of the Cyclic Prefix (CP). By swapping the filtering operations of the MIMO channel and the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), it is shown that each tone of a MIMO OFDM system can be viewed as a MIMO Single-Carrier (SC) system. A...

In this paper we propose an energy efficient cooperative MIMO system. Space-time block codes (STBC) and code combining techniques are applied to utilize the inherent spatial diversity in wireless cooperative MIMO systems. We form a group of senders and receivers to provide higher order MIMO diversity and implement our STBC scheme in a distributed manner. In the receiving group, code combining i...

Virtual multiple input multiple output (MIMO) techniques are used for energy efficient communication in wireless sensor networks. We investigate virtual MIMO for fixed and variable rates.
