Improves wireless signals for faster internet.
We derive a novel closed-form lower bound on the ergodic capacity of holographic multiple-input multiple-output (HMIMO) systems enhanced by stacked intelligent metasurfaces (SIMs) under Rayleigh fading conditions. The proposed expression is valid for systems with a finite number of antennas and SIM elements and exhibits tightness throughout the whole signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) range. Furthermore, we conduct a comprehensive low-SNR analysis, offering meaningful observations on how key system parameters influence the capacity performance.
