Abstract :
The dependence of multi-antenna capacity on bandwidth is characterized empirically for narrowband, wideband and ultrawideband indoor channels using spatial and polar arrays. It is shown that both the mean and the outage MIMO capacity increase with bandwidth, whilst the capacity coefficient of variation asymptotically vanishes.
