Channel State Information - Mathematical Description

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.
