Abstract :
The effect of antenna mutual coupling on the channel estimation for MIMO- OFDM system is rigorously studied. Numerical results show that we cannot ignore the influence of antenna mutual coupling on channel estimation. Antenna mutual coupling in general increases channel estimation error but reduces symbol error rate performance.
