Channel capacity of adaptive transmission with maximal ratio combining in correlated Rayleigh fading.

We derive closed-form expressions for the single-user capacity of maximal ratio combining diversity systems taking into account the effect of correlation between the different branches. We consider a Rayleigh fading channel with two kinds of correlation: 1) equal branch signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs)...
