Space-Time Transmit Diversity Combined with Frequency-domain Equalization for Single-carrier Transmission
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a frequency-selective fading channel, the transmission performance of single-carrier (SC) transmission significantly degrades due to severe inter-symbol-interference (ISI). In this paper, the joint use of space-time transmit diversity (STTD), receive antenna diversity and frequency-domain minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalization in SC transmission is studied. Space-time encoding and decoding for frequency-domain MMSE equalization is proposed. The bit error rate (BER) performance of SC transmission is evaluated by computer simulation. It is found that joint use of STTD, receive antenna diversity and frequency-domain MMSE equalization can significantly improve the BER performance in a severe frequency-selective fading channel.

Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization for Orthogonal STBC over Frequency-Selective MIMO-PLC channels
In this paper we propose a new space diversity scheme for broadband PLC systems using orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission combined with single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). To apply this diversity technique to PLC channels, we first propose a new technique for combining SC-FDE with OSTBCs applicable to all dispersive multipath channels impaired by impulsive...

Abstract Peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction is still an important issue in the next-generation mobile communication networks using higher frequency bands. Recently, we have proposed a PAPR reduction technique called blind selected mapping (blind SLM), which does not require side-information transmission and is able to reduce the PAPR effectively without bit-error rate (BER) degradatio...

متن کاملFrequency-Domain Equalization for Single-Carrier Space-Time Block Coded Transmit Diversity in a High Mobility Environment
Single-carrier (SC) transmission with space-time block coded (STBC) transmit diversity can achieve good bit error rate (BER) performance. However, in a high mobility environment, the STBC codeword orthogonality is distorted and as consequence, the BER performance is degraded by the interference caused by the orthogonality distortion of STBC codeword. In this paper, we proposed a novel frequency...
