10. MIMO-OFDM Systems in 5G Networks

Time: 90 min (video: 15 min + Chapter: 45 min + Code: 30 min)

MIMO systems employ multiple antennas at both the transmitter and the receiver. This allows for the transmission of multiple streams of data simultaneously, effectively increasing the capacity and reliability of the communication link. When combined with good signal processing algorithms, MIMO technology enables the system to meet reliability, throughput, and latency requirements. In this tutorial, we will investigate the reliability and throughput performance of a \(1 \times 2\), \(2 \times 1\), and \(2 \times 2\) MIMO system when configured in transmit diversity, receive diversity, and spatial multiplexing mode.
