摘要：
In this paper we investigate the performance of reconfigurable antennas in an MIMO ad-hoe network. The nodes employ the multiuser waterfilling (known also as iterative waterfilling) power allocation [1], [2] method and we use network sum capacity as a performance metric. We study a centralized configuration selection scheme, which can be used as an upper bound in the sum capacity using reconfigurable antennas, as wen as a simple distributed configuration selection scheme, suitable for use in an ad-hoc MIMO network.
