Abstract
We develop a general mathematical model for nearfield multipath scattering as a basis for studying the spatial limits imposed on multi-antenna wireless communication systems. This model generalizes the Herglotz wave function, which is an important tool in the study of inverse scattering problems, to a form where the scatterers can be nearfield. This permits the development of the most general form of spatial correlation which is known to constrain the capacity of wireless systems.
