Abstract :
This paper presents some results obtained from a first approach to a point-scatter simulator for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radio channel modeling. Specifically, we present the comparison of capacity obtained using the point-scatter simulator with that obtained with the Kronecker model. Capacity results obtained from measured propagation data are also presented. Ideas to enhance the simulator, which include the development of a statistical-based generative channel model for MIMO systems, are discussed.
