Abstract: | This paper presents an analytic lower bound of ergodic capacity for distributed MIMO (D-MIMO) systems that experience not only Rician fading but also shadowing effects of Lognormal distributed. In particularly, we consider that the Rician fading channel is spatially correlated at both transmitter and receiver. In the communication environment corresponding to this setting, the angle spread at the transmitter and the angle spread at the receiver are both insufficient, and the non-fading components co-exists with the fading components. Such communication environment is very common. In the process of deriving the analytic lower bound, in order to avoid Hayakawa polynomials that cannot be analytically expressed, non-central quadratic forms are transformed to non-central Wishart matrices by use of inequality. The validity of the presented lower bound is verified by computer simulations. The simulation results show the influence of the number of radio ports at the transmitter, the number of antennas at the transmitter or receiver, correlation level (angle spreads) and Rician K-factor on the capacity of systems. In all cases, the presented bound remains tight across the entire signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. |
