While significant work has been dedicated to analyzing the performance of antennas for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and diversity systems, little has appeared on synthesizing optimal antennas for these systems. This paper explores optimal antenna characteristics given understanding about the average structure of the propagation environment, making the results applicable for time-varying channels created by mobile nodes or scatterer motion. Specifically, it examines optimal antenna designs for the cases where 1) the antennas reside in a fixed aperture or 2) the number of antenna elements is fixed (under fast-fading conditions with spatially correlated signals).
