Mimo Performance Evaluation Based On Various Scenarios

Abstract

. © Daffodil International University ABSTRACT MIMO is one of several forms of smart antenna technology in which multiple antennas are used at both the source or transmitter and the destination or receiver. In conventional wireless communications, a single antenna is used at the source, and another single antenna is used at the destination. In some cases, this gives rise to problems with multipath effects. The use of two or more antennas, along with the transmission of multiple signals, one for each antenna, at the source and the destination, eliminates the trouble caused by multipath wave propagation, and can even take advantage of this effect. This report provides an analysis of MIMO channel capacity in terms of different condition of MIMO antenna using MATLAB simulation software. It also shows a comparison between MIMO channel capacity and theoretical Shanon’s channel capacity. Another comparison is also shown between SISO and MIMO with the help of real world data. The comparisons are conducted using the parameters RSSI, Jitter, Power Level, Bandwidth, BER and FER for different types of modulation schemes and fading channels.
