Performance Analysis of MAP Decoded Space-Time Orthogonal Block Codes for Non-Uniform Sources*

چکیده
We derive a closed-form expression for the exact pairwise error probability (PEP) of a non-uniform memoryless binary source transmitted over a Rayleigh fading channel using space-time orthogonal block codes and maximum a posteriori (MAP) detection. The expression is easy to evaluate and holds for any signaling scheme. We then use this result to minimize the bit error rate of the binary antipodal signaling scheme. Numerical results for the case of binary antipodal signaling (BPSK and optimal) verify the accuracy of our formula and quantify substantial gains of MAP decoding over maximum likelihood (ML) decoding for sources with strong non-uniformity.

Cooperative Orthogonal Space-Time-Frequency Block Codes over a MIMO-OFDM Frequency Selective Channel
In this paper, a cooperative algorithm to improve the orthogonal space-timefrequency block codes (OSTFBC) in frequency selective channels for 2*1, 2*2, 4*1, 4*2 MIMO-OFDM systems, is presented. The algorithm of three node, a source node, a relay node and a destination node is formed, and is implemented in two stages. During the first stage, the destination and the relay antennas receive the sym...

متن کاملA Randomization Technique for Non-Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes
In this paper we propose a transmission concept that improves the performance of high rate non-orthogonal space-time block codes. Orthogonal space-time codes have well known rate limitations [9], [7]. If the symbol rate is increased beyond those limits either code orthogonality [5] or the effective diversity gain is necessarily compromised. In the presence of channel coding the performance of n...
متن کاملFull-Rate Full-Diversity Linear Quasi-Orthogonal Space-Time Codes for Any Number of Transmit Antennas
We construct a class of linear quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes that achieve full diversity over quasistatic fading channels for any transmit antennas. These codes achieve a normalized rate of one symbol per channel use. Constellation rotation is shown to be necessary for the full-diversity feature of these codes. When the number of transmit antennas is a power of 2, these codes are also...
متن کاملGeneralized ABBA Space-Time Block Codes
Linear space-time block codes (STBCs) of unitary rate and full diversity, systematically constructed over arbitrary constellations for any number of transmit antennas are introduced. The codes are obtained by generalizing the existing ABBA STBCs, a.k.a quasi-orthogonal STBCs (QO-STBCs). Furthermore, a fully orthogonal (symbol-by-symbol) decoder for the new generalized ABBA (GABBA) codes is prov...
