Abstract :
This paper introduces a two by two multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system using two closely-spaced leaky coaxial cables (LCXs). In this LCX-MIMO system, two different types of LCXs are placed in parallel with a narrow spacing, and different RF signals are fed to each of the LCXs from the same side. We show with our experimental results that the proposed LCX-MIMO set up works as well as MIMO transmission specified by the IEEE802.11n standard in the 2.4 GHz ISM band.
