Outage Capacity Study of the Distributed MIMO System with Antenna Cooperation

This letter analyzes the outage capacity of the distributed multi-input multi-output (D-MIMO) systm with antenna cooperation over the Rayleigh-Log-normal fading channel. Firstly, an analytical expression of outage capacity is derived under the cooperative transmission scheme (CTS). Moreover, to optimize the system performance, an adaptive CTS (ACTS) is proposed, and a theoretical expression is derived to perform the ACTS. Simulation results are presented to verify the theoretical outcome.
