Multiplexing efficiency of high order MIMO in mobile terminal in different propagation scenarios

The multiplexing efficiency of 4×4 higher order MIMO with different MIMO topologies under different propagation scenarios in a mobile terminal is presented in this study. The mean effective gain, correlation coefficient and multiplexing efficiency of different MIMO topologies are compared and the impact from the angular spread of the incoming wave is also studied. The results are instructive for the high order MIMO antenna design in mobile terminal.
