Explicit conditions on the channel matrix to admit K/2 DoF are, however, not available. The purpose of this paper is to identify such explicit conditions, which are satisfied for almost all channel matrices. We also provide a construction of corresponding asymptotically DoF-optimal input distributions. The main technical tool used is a recent breakthrough result by Hochman in fractal geometry. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.7374v1
