Mathematical Description
In a narrowband flat-fading channel with multiple transmit and receive antennas (MIMO), the system is modeled as
where and are the receive and transmit vectors, respectively, and and are the channel matrix and the noise vector, respectively. The noise is often modeled as circular symmetric complex normal with
where the mean value is zero and the noise covariance matrix is known.
