  • Abstract
    MIMO systems using single dual-polarised antennas at transmitter and receiver can be a simple, cheap and compact alternative to conventional multi-antenna MIMO configurations. Recently, approximate expressions and bounds for the ergodic capacity of such systems have been proposed assuming Rayleigh or Ricean channel models. A tight closed-form approximation for the ergodic capacity of such systems in arbitrary multipath fading channels is derived.
