Antenna selection Additional costs for MIMO
September 2003July 2004 Antenna selection Additional costs for MIMO more antenna elements (cheap) more signal processing (Moore’s law) one RF chain for each antenna element Basic idea of antenna selection: have many antenna elements, but select only best for downconversion and processing only at one link end: cost reductions might be more important at one link end (MS) than the other Hybrid antenna selection: select best L out of available N antenna elements, use those for processing A.

Summary and conclusions
September 2003July 2004 Summary and conclusions antenna selection retains the diversity degree, but SNR penalty for spatial multiplexing, comparable capacity if LrNt optimum selection algorithms have complexity N!/(N-L)!; however, fast, good selection algorithms exist for low-rank channels, transmit antenna selection can increase capacity channel estimation errors do not decrease capacity significantly frequency selectivity reduces effectiveness of antenna selection RF preprocessing greatly improves performance, especially in correlated channels Covariance-based preprocessing especially suitable for frequency-selective channels switches with low attenuation required both for TX and RX antenna selection is attractive for reducing hardware complexity in MIMO systems A.
