Performance study of MIMO systems in a clustered multipath channel
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Fading correlation is one of the fundamental limits on the performance of multi-antenna systems. Accurate modeling of the angular power distribution (pdf) is essential for accurate prediction of correlation. Previous studies were limited to the case of single-cluster distribution or uniform pdf. Measurements indicate that multipath often arrives in several angular clusters and with a non-uniform angular cluster pdf. We begin with the popular Salz-Winters model and extend it to the case of a multi-cluster channel and to the case of a non-uniform cluster pdf. The generic model, as well as various approximations which result in compact closed-from expressions, are studied in detail. It is shown that the correlation in a two clusters channel has an oscillatory behavior as antenna spacing increases, regardless of multipath AOA distributions; the envelope of correlation is determined by a single cluster angular spread while the oscillations within the envelope are determined by the inter-cluster angular spread. There exist two types of correlation zeros, which can be beneficially used in system design. The cluster angular pdf has negligible impact on the MIMO capacity and, hence, a simpler uniform model can be used without degradation in accuracy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
