MIMO Channel Capacity in 2D and 3D Isotropic Environments

Figure 5

Scatter plots of mean effective gain (MEG) and correlation coefficient magnitudes for each AUT in the 2D statistically isotropic environment for uniformly distributed orientations of the AUT. The position of each circle indicates the MEGs of the two antenna elements; the size/shade of each circle indicates the magnitude of the correlation coefficient.
