A MIMO channel model based on electric fields is used. The effects of mutual interactions among the array elements through space and surface waves are included into the channel matrix using a full-wave hybrid Method of Moments (MoM)/Green's function technique in the spatial domain. MIMO capacity of printed arrays is then compared with that of free standing thin wire dipole arrays. Results show better performance of printed arrays.EnglishConformal printed arraysMIMOMutual couplingPlanar printed arraysChannel capacityElectric fieldsElectromagnetic wavesGreen's functionChannel matrixConference Paper10.1109/EUCAP.2006.4584847
