Abstract
Following the seminal work of Zheng and Tse on the diversity and multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of MIMO channels, in this paper we introduce the array gain to investigate the fundamental relation between transmission rate and reliability in MIMO systems. The array gain gives information on the power offset that results from exploiting channel state information at the transmitter or as a consequence of the channel model. Hence, the diversity, multiplexing, and array gain (DMA) analysis can be directly translated into a parameterized characterization of its associated outage probability performance. In this paper we derive the fundamental DMA tradeoff achievable by any scheme in uncorrelated Rayleigh, semicorrelated Rayleigh, and uncorrelated Rician block-fading MIMO channels. We use these results to analyze the effect of important channel parameters in the outage performance at different points of the DMT curve.
