On the MIMO Channel Capacity Predicted by Kronecker and Müller Models Müge KARAMAN ÇOLAKOĞLU Prof. Dr. Mehmet ŞAFAK COST 289 4th Workshop, Gothenburg, Sweden April 11-12, 2007
Outline • MIMO Channel Models • Kronecker model • Müller model • Results • Conclusion
Kronecker Model-1 Assumptions: • Flat fading channel • Only doubly-scattered rays are considered • LOS multipath component ignored • Single scattered signals ignored • Source of fading Local scatterers • Number of scatterers Typically >10 • Fading correlations are separated • Tx have no CSI, Rx have CSI
Kronecker Model-3 Sensitivity against the model parameters (wavelength=0.15 m)
Müller Model-1 Assumptions: • Frequency-selective fading channel • Scatterers can be distinguished in time and space (Different locations and delays) • Only singly-scattered rays are considered • No LOS, no multiple scattering • Tx and Rx at the foci of concentric (equi-delay) ellipses • Asymptotic in the number of scatterers, and of the transmit- and receive antennas
Müller Model-2 Propagation coefficient between th Tx and th Rx antenna Received signal at time : Delay and space coordinates for the Müller model
Müller Model-3 • Singular values of the random channel matrix H show fewer fluctuations, become deterministic as its size goes infinity • Approximates finite size matrices • Singular value distributions can be calculated analytically • Only the surviving physical parameters show significant influence on the singular value distribution and characterise the MIMO channel • In the asymptotic limit, singular values of H for flat fading and frequency-selective fading channels are the same
Müller Model-4 • Surviving physical parameters that dominate the value of the channel capacity: System load: Total richness: Attenuation distribution (assumed): (for all )

Conclusion-1 Kronecker model: • Valid for flat-fading channels • May be more appropriate for urban channels • May lead to pessimistic capacity predictions in suburban areas • Some measurement results show that model fails under certain circumstances
Conclusion-2 Müller model: • Valid for frequency-selective fading channels • May describe suburban channels more accurately • Simple and characterizes the channel by • the number of Tx antennas • the number of Rx antennas • the chanel richness (usually ignored in other models) • Capacity predictions by the Müller model may be higher compared with the Kronecker model
Channel Capacity-1 Finding average capacity-Method 1: • Replace mean value of by deterministic correlation matrix Find eigenvalues and the capacity • Issue: How to model the correlation matrix ? (correlation between antenna elements, angular spread of signals, scattering richness)
Channel Capacity-2 Finding average capacity-Method 2: • Elements of are zero mean Gaussian random variables is central Wishart matrix. • Joint pdf of the ordered eigenvalues of a complex Wishart matrix is known. • Determine the capacity by using joint pdf of the ordered eigenvalues. • Issue: Hard to determine the marginal pdf’s analytically.
Isolates the fading correlations Simplify the simulation and the analysis Kronecker Model-3 • Underestimates the channel capacity (high corelation ) • Should be used at low correlation chanels • Assumes double scattering from local scatterers • More suited for urban channels
Kronecker Model-4 Sensitivity against the model parameters (wavelength=0.15 m)
Müller Model-4 • It is assumed that • Eigenvalue distribution of the space-time channel matrix does not changes if the delay times of particular paths vary. • No need to distinguish between the distributions of path attenuations conditioned on different delays. • A uniform power delay profile is assumed. • The paths that have same delay are assumed attenuated at the same rate.
