different antenna spacings and orientations in an indoor scenario. The maximum capacity was achieved when the broadside directions of the arrays were facing each other, and a 4-b/s/Hz mean capacity loss was measured when the perpendicular orientation was selected. The antenna separation of 2 gave the highest capacity values, although was found to be enough at certain distances. The correlation was only 0.04 smaller for 2, compared to . Finally, capacity was found to decrease with distance d at short-range distances.
