Abstract :
Wireless communication systems with transmit and receive antenna arrays are studied when antenna selection is used. A case with very limited feedback of information from the receiver to the transmitter is considered, where the only information fed back is the selected subset of transmit antennas to be employed. It is shown that the optimum signaling, for largest ergodic capacity with antenna selection, is generally different from that which is optimum without antenna selection for some range of signal-to-noise ratios.
