MIMO Channel Models

This chapter presents an overview of statistical channel model for MIMO system that employs the multiple transmit and/or multiple receive antennas, and then, describes specific methods of implementing the MIMO channel, including a correlation-based I-METRA channel model and a ray-based 3GPP spatial channel model (SCM). It also presents the ready-to-run MATLAB? programs for the simulation of MIMO channel.
