Abstract :
A closed-form expression is provided for the calculation of the minimum SNR required to achieve a target data-rate using a generic MIMO-aided M-QAM transceiver. The computationally efficient technique proposed facilitates the convenient characterisation of MIMO-assisted wireless systems.
