The performance obtained by MISO (with channel knowledge and SIMO is same in terms of both array and diversity gains. When there is no channel knowledge at the transmitter, the system behaves as a SISO system unless we employ some precoding (space-time codes. With precoding at the transmitter we will be able to extract the diversity gain but not the maximum possible array gain. 1

As shown above, the optimum strategy for MIMO to achieve capacity with channel knowledge at transmitter is exactly transmit- MRC when the number of receive antennas is 1. Problem P.101, Paulraj book has a table summarizing achievable array and diversity gains under different configurations (a i.

M R = 1, =, channel unknown to transmitter, known to receiver If we transmit the same symbol on both antennas without space-time coding then we will not be able to achieve array or diversity gains (effectively SISO.

Waterfilling allocates equal power to all modes at high SNRs. So ergodic capacity won t be optimum if we employ DET at high SNRs. There will in general be at least be a few other good channels (from waterfilling at medium SNRs. So even here DET may not be optimum. Very low SNR region might make a DET scheme an optimum one. Rank 1 channel (both SIMO and MISO, with CSI at transmitter is another example where DET is an ergodic optimum scheme. ρ } Problem 3 (a The channel matrix H: ( P e N e Q ηd min [ h11 h H = 1 h 1 h ] BPSK with E s = 1...

The change in slope (a direct measure of diversity can be noticed in the curves. Notice the same slope of AS and MRC, indicating that both schemes achieve same diversity order (8. The main difference between SIMO with 8 antennas and AS is the array gain.
