    This document summarizes key topics in multi-user wireless communications including capacity of wireless channels, information theory, multipath fading, capacity of AWGN channels, and power and bandwidth limited regimes. It discusses how information theory provides fundamental limits on communication performance and how multipath fading was traditionally viewed as unreliable but can be exploited to increase spectral efficiency. It also outlines the relationships between capacity, transmit power, and bandwidth.

    Capacity of Wireless Channels

    Information Theory

    • So far we have only looked at specific communication


    schemes.
    • Information theory provides a fundamental limit to (coded)
    performance.
    • It succinctly identifies the impact of channel resources on
    performance as well as suggests new and cool ways to
    communicate over the wireless channel.
    • It provides the basis for the modern development of wireless
    communication.

    Multipath Fading: A Modern View

    16dB

    Classical view: fading channels are


    unreliable

    Modern view: multipath fading can be


    exploited to increase spectral efficiency.
    4
    Capacity of AWGN Channel

    Capacity of AWGN channel

    If average transmit power constraint is watts and noise psd


    is watts/Hz,

    5
    Power and Bandwidth Limited Regimes

    Bandwidth limited regime


    capacity logarithmic in power, approximately linear in
    bandwidth.
    Power limited regime
    capacity linear in power, insensitive to bandwidth.
