Enhancing Communications with MIMO Research Study 2023: Understanding the Advantages and Specifics of MIMO Technology Across Industry Standards - 3GPP LTE, IEEE802.11ax, and More


Dublin, Aug. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Enhancing Communications with MIMO - Technologies, Markets and Applications" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report researches advanced technologies and markets for wireless and wired communications systems that MIMO supports - Multiple Input/Multiple Output structures - to enhance their performance. It revises and updates earlier issues of the report as well as adds the analysis of latest technologies.

The goal of this report is to characterize MIMO advantages and specifics for each standard. It also addresses the market characteristics of discussed technologies. The report concentrates on profiling the industry players and their products. MIMO characteristics, structures, and types are also addressed and compared. The report also surveys patents related to the discussed subjects.

Users' demand for more efficient networking brought to life many technological innovations. One of them is MIMO, which became very popular in wireless systems - almost all recent and future 3GPP standards use (or will be using) variations of such a technique. MIMO is also used in wireline systems.

This report is based on the analysis of MIMO-based communications systems, their technologies, and markets specifics. The report is written for a broad audience of managers and technical staff who are involved in the design and implementation of advanced communications systems.

In particular, the following industry standards that utilize MIMO have been considered:

  • 3GPP LTE
  • IEEE802.11ax
  • IEEE802.11ay
