Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication may provide high spectral efficiency through the deployment of a very large number of antenna elements at the base stations. The gains from massive MIMO communication come from the use of multi-user MIMO on the uplink and downlink, but with a large excess of antennas at the base station compared to the number of served users. Initial work on massive MIMO did not fully address several practical issues associated with its deployment. This paper considers the impact of channel aging on the performance of massive MIMO systems. The effects of channel variation are characterized as a function of different system parameters assuming a simple model for the channel time variations at the transmitter. Channel prediction is proposed to overcome channel aging effects. The analytical results on aging show how capacity is lost due to time variation in the channel. Numerical results in a multicell network show that massive MIMO works even with some channel variation and that channel prediction could partially overcome channel aging effects.

In this paper we have studied the underwater vector channel modeling for MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) to increase the performance and efficiency for ultrasound communication in underwater channel environments. Also we have analyzed the MIMO techniques using the proposed channel modeling. For underwater MIMO channel modeling. experiments were done in real channel environments and the data were analyzed to estimate parameters such as fading, Doppler, time delay, angle of arrival, and receiving power. These were used for modeling of underwater vector channel modeling for MIMO. Additionally, we have analyzed the performance of MIMO systems using our proposed channel models. As a result we could see that the BER has decreased severely with the same SNR when using the MIMO system.

In this paper, we suggest the novel MIMO-UWB transceiver structure which can easily be adapted for various MIMO schemes and presents MIMO channel model for obtaining correlation characteristics among channels to analyze the performance. From the indoor channel modeling, we obtain the interferences among antennas due to the MIMO channel formation through numerical simulation and analyze the performance of MIMO-UWB system under frequency selective fading. Especially, to reduce the excessive computational complexity due to the inverse matrix computation of channel transfer function, we take the scheme combining the transmitting signals estimated from each receiving antenna after recovering each transmitting antenna signal from a receiving antenna.

In this paper, we study precoding techniques for co-channel interference suppression in multiuser MIMO systems. DPC is optimal techniques to achieve the system capacity of multiuser MIMO downlink channels. DPC is not proper in practical wireless systems because complexity is very high. So block diagonal precoding for multiuser MIMO downlink channel is studied. The block diagonal precoding is used to suppress co-channel interference between multiuser. Block diagonal precoding method, whose complexity is reduced by modified null space operation, change multiuser MIMO channel to multiple single-user MIMO channel. We also use V-BLAST decoder in receiver. V-BLAST decoder can achieve increased system capacity in proportion to the number of users. We show improved system performance by using computer simulation.

Compared to the MIMO system using the spatial multiplexing methods and the MIMO system using the diversity scheme achieved a high rate, but the lower the diversity gain to improve the data transmission reliability should separate the spatial stream at the MIMO receiver. In this paper, we compared Channel capacity detection methods with the Lattice code, the 3-user interference channel and linear channel interference detection methods ZF (Zero Forcing) and MMSE (Minimum Mean Square Error) detection methods. The channel is a Diagonal channel. In other words, Diagonal channel is confirmed by the inverse matrix satisfies the properties of Jacket are element-wise inverse to $[H]_N[H]_N^{-1}=[I]_N$.

Generally, multi-path is viewed as an undesirable feature of wireless communications. Therefore, diversity reception and adaptive array schemes are proposed to mitigate its effects. Recently, to increase the spectrum efficiency and the link reliability, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme is devised to exploit multi-path in a scattering wireless channel. In this paper, we have evaluated the channel capacity of MIMO Multi-Carrier CDMA system in path correlation fading channel. And, the channel capacity of MIMO system is compared with single-input single-output (SISO) system. From the results, the MIMO multi-carrier CDMA system with path correlation yields better performance with respect to channel capacity than a SISO system.

If channel coefficients errors exist in MIMO-OFDM systems, the performance degradation of systems will occurs. In order to improve the performance of MIMO-OFDM systems, the technique of obtaining accurate channel estimation in multipath fading channel is necessary. In this paper, we introduce and propose new channel estimation-modified ICA algorithm. Simulation results shows from BER and SER curves which compare the proposed algorithm under time-varying Rayleigh fading with perfect known channel. The result of channel estimation by the proposed algorithm in this simulation, it shows that PDF(amplitude of channel) are close to the case with perfect known channel at the receiver with respect to uncoded QPSK/16-QAM/64-QAM modulation. Also, we can see that BER and SER curves are very close to the case with perfect known channel. Therefore, we see that the proposed algorithm have a good performance in MIMO-OFDM systems.

In this paper, we simulate and evaluate the performance of MIMO systems adopting MMSE-OSUC receiver algorithm under Rayleigh fading channel environment. In the simulation, BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM modulation is used with frame length of 100 symbols. First, the concept of MIMO is introduced by the analytical basis of the channel capacity of MIMO system. From the performance analysis results, the channel capacity is identified by the function of channel and it is affected by the channel characteristic. Next, based on this approach, the algorithm for performance evaluation over MIMO channel was analyzed. From the performance analysis results, it is found that MMSE-OSUC receiver algorithm generally outperform conventional ZF-OUSC receiver algorithm in performance but the performance difference between the two algorithms is reduced as modulation scheme with larger constellation point is used.

This paper presents a novel channel capacity maximization method for a distorted $2{\times}2$ line-of-sight (LOS) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) link. A LOS MIMO link may be distorted by the influence of environmental factors such that the channel capacity of the LOS MIMO link may be degraded. By using the proposed method, the channel capacity of a distorted $2{\times}2$ LOS MIMO link can be the same as that of the ideal $2{\times}2$ LOS MIMO link. The proposed method employs an additional receiver antenna to maximize the channel capacity. In contrast to a $3{\times}2$ LOS MIMO link, a receiver circuit for a third receiving antenna is not necessary. Hence, the receiver for the proposed method is much simpler than that for a $3{\times}2$ LOS MIMO link. We determine the optimal position of the additional receiver antenna analytically. Simulation results show that the channel capacity can approach the ideal using the proposed method.

An OFDMA(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) includes a MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) scheme for improving spectral efficiency and data throughput. Recognizing that the performance of MIMO system is heavily dependent upon the accuracy of channel estimation, we propose a novel channel estimation for the MIMO scheme based on OFDMA. Conventional interpolation-based channel estimation suffers from poor estimation error at specific subcarriers. Proposed scheme makes use of a planar interpolation instead of linear interpolation for those subcarriers of bad accuracy. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the performance of MIMO system by improving the accuracy in channel estimation especially for the adverse subcarrier positions. It is observed that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional method by about 2dB in terms of both mean squared error and overall bit error rate with a reasonable computational complexity.
