On the Capacity of Non-Uniform Phase MIMO Nakagami-m Fading Channels

This letter investigates the ergodic capacity of MIMO Nakagami-m fading channels with both uniformly and non-uniformly distributed phases. We first obtain a tight capacity upper bound for the channel and then derive exact expressions for the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) capacity metrics, based on which we examine the impact of fading parameter m on the capacity.
