Abstract
We study the capacity of multiple antenna channels with block fading model. We compute the high SNR channel capacity for general values of transmit and receive antennas. Particularly, we focus on the number of degrees of freedom (d.o.f.) in this channel, and propose a pilot based scheme that achieves the optimal number of d.o.f
