Abstract

Multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) transceivers can take advantage of random channel fading and multi-path delay spread for multiplying transfer rates (multiplexing gain), improve transmission quality/reliability (diversity gain) at no cost of extra spectrum, or allow the spatial separation of the signals of different transceivers in a multi-user scenario, thus providing a multiple-access gain.
