Study of indoor radio coverage solutions based on Interleaved-MIMO DAS

In the present work, the performance of indoor deployment solutions based on the combination of Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) and MIMO transmission techniques (Interleaved-MIMO DAS solutions) is investigated for high-order MIMO schemes with the aid of LTE link level simulations. Planning guidelines for linear and 2D coverage solutions based on Interleaved-MIMO DAS are then derived.
