This letter studies the ergodic mutual information (EMI) of keyhole multiple-input multiple-output channels having finite-alphabet input signals. The EMI is first investigated for single-stream transmission considering both cases with and without the channel state information at the transmitter. Then, the derived results are extended to the scenario of multi-stream transmission. Asymptotic analyses are performed in the regime of high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The high-SNR EMI is shown to converge to a constant with its rate of convergence determined by the diversity order. On this basis, the influence of the keyhole effect on the EMI is discussed. The analytical results are validated by numerical simulations.
