Abstract

This paper provides analytical characterizations of the impact on the multiple-antenna capacity of several important features that fall outside the standard multiple-antenna model, namely: i) antenna correlation, ii) Ricean factors, iii) polarization diversity, and iv) out-of-cell interference; all in the regime of low signal-to-noise ratio. The interplay of rate, bandwidth, and power is analyzed in the region of energy per bit close to its minimum value. The analysis yields practical design lessons for arbitrary number of antennas in the transmit and receive arrays.
