This study book, written by Tim Brown and published by John Wiley & Sons, deals with the MIMO radio channel and provides a clear overview of the theory and practice surrounding this topic. It is aimed at researchers, engineers, and students who want to learn about communications with multiple antennas.
Description
This book introduces the concept of the Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) radio channel and discusses the key models used in industry, science, and standardization. It is structured to give the reader step by step insight into the fundamental and mathematical principles behind MIMO, with examples such as the Kronecker model, Weichselberger model, geometric and deterministic models, and ray tracing. It also explains system scenarios and the corresponding trade-offs, supported by practical applications.
