Abstract

We consider the total capacity of a Gaussian multiple-access MIMO channel with a linear array of R receive antennas and T distributed transmit antennas. If the spatial distribution of transmit antennas weighed by their path loss and marginalized to a sphere around the receive array is proportional to the ratio of receive antenna directivity to transmit antenna directivity, the capacity is shown to approach Rlog(1 + SNR) as T → ∞, irrespective of the inter-element distance at the receiver.We further show that the capacity for other distributions of transmit antennas can be even greater, as the inter-element distance approaches zero. © 2012 IEEE.
