Abstract :
This paper presents the dual (2times2) MIMO channel capacity over the Hoyt fading channel. The joint eigenvalue distribution of the channel matrix is obtained and it is shown that the effect of the Hoyt parameter b can degrade around 8.5% the channel capacity. For the ttimesr case, an asymptotic result is also derived. All the results are validated by numerical Monte Carlo simulations and are in excellent agreement
