Abstract :
The BLAST architecture has been recently proposed as an extremely efficient tool for wireless communications in rich multipath environments. However. The channel capacity of the BLAST architecture strongly depends on the correlation between individual channels. The author reports an explicit closed-form expression of the channel capacity of a two-antenna BLAST architecture as a function of the channel correlation
