摘要
Spatial degrees of freedom (DoF) are fundamental to the performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. However, the use of conventional fixed-location antennas introduces disparities in the users' distances to a common base station, which makes the multi-user channel matrix more susceptible to rank deficiency and, consequently, a loss of spatial DoF. This paper shows that generalized pinching antennas can be used to design a new form of MIMO robust to the loss of spatial DoF. In particular, by deploying pinching antennas in close proximity to the users, the resulting multi-user channel Gram matrix can have a well-conditioned, almost diagonal structure, which reduces its sensitivity to the users' spatial deployment as well as the risk of rank deficiency. Two performance metrics, namely the rank-deficiency probability and the outage probability, are used to evaluate the performance of pinching-antenna-assisted MIMO transmission. The presented analytical and simulation results demonstrate the capability of pinching antennas to preserve spatial DoF and provide ubiquitous connectivity by effectively supporting users at spatially separated locations.
