Analysis on the Diversity and Multiplexing Tradeoff of Antenna Selected MIMO System

Antenna selection is a practical way to decrease system complexity and the hardware cost of radio frequency (RF) chains in multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system. In this study, we give a simple characterization of the optimal diversity and multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) curve of the MIMO system with antenna subset selection at both the transmitter and the receiver for Rayleigh fading channel.
