Abstract :
Approximate closed-form density and distribution functions for the capacity of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radio systems in spatially semi-correlated Rayleigh fading channels are derived. The approximations are given in terms of the Meijer G-function, hence allowing easy numerical evaluation of capacity outage probabilities with, for example, Maple or Mathematica.
