Abstract

A new structure to improve channel capacity of short-range MIMO is proposed. The proposed structure consists of back reflector and side reflector. FDTD simulation demonstrates a role of back reflector and side reflector. The back reflector increases all eigen values. The side reflector equalizes eigen value distribution. Consequently, the proposed structure enhances the channel capacity.
