Diversity and Multiplexing Gains

•Diversity Gain = (Ideal Diversity Gain) x SQRT(1 – r), where the Ideal Diversity Gain is proportional to the dimensions n, m or n x m (m for Transmit diversity gain, n for receive diversity gain, n x m for total system diversity gain), Correlation Coefficient r is a function of
1.Separable Antenna Patterns (angular separation)
2.Separable Antenna Positions (spatial separation)
3.Isotropic distribution of incoming multipath waves (angular spread)
4.Wide-dispersive distribution of incoming multipath waves (delay spread)
•Multiplexing Gain is related to Correlation Coefficient r as well, except that the Ideal Multiplexing Gain is rather proportional to the dimension either m or n, whichever is less in the system
