Abstract :
This paper deals with several aspects relative to the Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) propagation channel. Measurement campaigns, made in former gold mine at 2.4 GHz, have been analyzed to obtain the relevant statistical parameters of the channel. These results make it possible the use of MIMO techniques in real underground mine gallery for wireless communication systems.
