Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to introduce MIMO propagation in a simple and intuitive way, which exalts the role of the laws of electromagnetism in the channel capacity of space-time communication systems. The approach takes advantage of mode expansions in waveguides and spherical-harmonics expansions in free space to clarify the physical limitations in the channel capacity of MIMO systems
