The increasing demand for high-speed, high-quality mobile
communication has fueled interest in spectrum-efficient multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication links. Systems
with MIMO communication links use multiple antenna arrays,
one at the transmitter and one at the receiver, to take full
advantage of the spatial dimension of the propagation channel.
When properly designed, MIMO communication links provide multi-fold
increases in link throughput in addition to dramatic reductions
in fading. Due to these advantages, MIMO capability is being
considered for indoor local area networks, cellular multimedia
data networks, and broadband fixed wireless access. This workshop
will provide an overview of MIMO communication systems and
will consider recent research advances in the area. Distinguished
speakers in the area will discuss different aspects of MIMO
communication including a general overview, multi-antenna
channel modeling, space-time block coding, applications of
computational electromagnetics to MIMO, and interference management
in MIMO networks.
Topics to be covered include:
- Introduction to space time wireless communications
- Space-time block coding for wireless communications
- Wireless propagation channels for multiple-antenna systems
- Computational Electromagnetic Characterization of MIMO
Communication Systems
- Managing MIMO Interference
