Abstract

This paper deals with the MIMO (multiple- input multiple-output) wireless communication system, and how it relates to spatial diversity and WLANs. MIMO relies on multipath propagation for capacity benefit. The aim is to build a multiple antenna system in which as many as possible of the transmitting and receiving antenna-pairs are able to carry independent information channels within the same bandwidth. The system is able to distinguish the fading channels which are sharing the band
