Abstract :
A novel capacity estimator for low rank multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels impaired with white noise is proposed by reducing the impact of noise on both the spatial multiplexing gain and on the power gain. Numerical results show that the estimator performs better than conventional methods in estimation accuracy, and the requirements on the number of observations as well as on the computation resources are small.
