the channel is unknown at the transmitter and perfectly known at the receiver. Using results
from multivariate statistics, we derive a tight closed-form lower-bound for the ergodic
capacity of such channels at any signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Moreover, we provide an
accurate closed-form analytical approximation of ergodic capacity in the high SNR regime.
Our analysis incorporates the frequency-selective Rayleigh fading case and/or spatial fading …
