Abstract :
This paper examines the requirements for the construction of a capacity-optimized multiple input multiple output (MIMO) line of sight (LOS) satellite channel between 2 geostationary satellites and Mr antennas placed on earth in general. It is shown that a full multiplexing gain through a geometrical optimized arrangement of the antennas can be achieved both for stationary anchor stations and mobile receivers.
