Effect of antenna array element separation on capacity of MIMO systems including mutual coupling

• In this paper, we study the effect of element separation in a base station array (BSA) on the downlink line-of-sight achievable sum-rate of MIMO systems in the presence of mutual coupling at the BSA. The channel matrix H is modeled using the embedded field patterns of the BSA and is used to analyze the outage performance for two single-element user equipments assuming no inter-user coupling.
