This paper provides a comprehensive overview of critical developments in the field of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems. The state of the art in single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO) and multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) communications is presented, highlighting the key aspects of these technologies. Both open-loop and closed-loop SU-MIMO systems are discussed in this paper with ...

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques have brought significant advances to wireless communications. In recent years, researchers have sought to bring similar advances to radar using MIMO. One specific area that has received relatively little attention is MIMO synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The advantages that MIMO might provide to SAR are not well represented in literature. This pap...

Future Wireless Networks are expected to adopt multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) systems whose performance is maximized by making use of precoding at the transmitter. This chapter describes the recent advances in precoding design for MU-MIMO and introduces a new technique to improve the precoder performance. Without claiming to be comprehensive, the chapter gives deep introduc...

Energy efficiency (EE) is becoming more and more important in future wireless communications because of limited battery power in mobile terminals. In this paper, we compare EE of the distributed MIMO (D-MIMO) and co-located MIMO (C-MIMO) in uplink systems. Taking into account both circuit and transmit power, we derive an analytical expression for EE of D-MIMO and C-MIMO systems in a composite R...

Cooperative multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relaying is investigated in the paper. We introduce DFAF selection MIMO relaying, where the relay equipped with multiple antennas can adaptively switch between decode-and-forward (DF) and amplify-and-forward (AF) according to its decoding state of the sourcemessage. We consider two wireless environment scenarios: 1)The scenario with traditional ...

Finite-length delay-optimized multi-input multi-output (MIMO) equalizers that optimally shorten the impulse response memory of frequency-selective MIMO channels are derived. The MIMO equalizers are designed to minimize the average energy of the error sequence between the equalized MIMO channel impulse response and an MIMO target impulse response (TIR) with shorter memory. Two criteria for optim...

Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems have been an important area for future wireless systems, as it can provide high capacity, good diversity and less interference. This technique is very attractive for wireless communication to increase data rates and system performance. A radio propagation channel is a one that gives the characteristics of MIMO systems. Different approaches have been...
