Abstract

We address the capacity limits of size- constrained multi-input multi-output (MIMO) ar- rays. While most work on MIMO focuses on arrays with of a small number of suciently spaced, low cor- related antenna elements, we look at the case where a xed small space is being lled up with antenna elements. We obtain a dense MIMO system whose rate performance is analyzed. We establish capacity limits and an equivalence with the capacity of MIMO arrays with unlimited aperture.
