3.2.1 Global Measure of Performance

Measuring the global performance of a MIMO system with several substreams is tricky as there is an inherent tradeoff among the performance of the different substreams. Different applications may require a different balance on the performance of the substreams (although one may also argue that minimizing the BER averaged over the substreams is the best criterion). The most common criterion in the literature is the minimization of the sum of the MSEs [2, 90, 129, 130, 131, 171]. Other considered criteria include the maximization of the SINR [131], the minimization...
