  Multiple cluster scattering MIMO channel is a useful model for pico-cellular
MIMO networks. In this paper, orthogonal space-time block coded transmission
over such a channel is considered, where the effective channel equals the
product of n complex Gaussian matrices. A simple and accurate closed-form
approximation to the channel outage capacity has been derived in this setting.
The result is valid for an arbitrary number of clusters n-1 of scatterers and
an arbitrary antenna configuration. Numerical results are provided to study the
relative outage performance between the multi-cluster and the Rayleigh-fading
MIMO channels for which n=1.
