This paper considers the ergodic capacity of spatially-correlated Rician MIMO channels. We address the case where the Rician component has a single dominant path and where the correlation occurs at one end of the MIMO link. We derive upper bounds which are tight for all signal to noise ratios (SNR), and lower bounds which converge to the exact capacity at high SNR. For frequency-flat channels we investigate the capacity variation with Rician K-factor and correlation. For frequency-selective channels we also examine the effect of the total angle spread
