چکیده
Multi-Antenna systems are expected to play very important role in future multimedia wireless communication systems. Such systems are predicted to provide tremendous improvement in spectrum utilization. In this paper we consider the capacity analysis of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems. Space-Time coding schemes are the practical signal design techniques to realize the information theoretic capacity limits of MIMO systems. Here the orthogonal space-time block codes are considered for the capacity and error probability analysis of MIMO systems as a case study. The numerical and simulation results obtained using MATLAB are presented for the Multi-antenna system channel capacity and bit-error probability in Rayleigh fading channels. Key-Words: space-time codes, transmit diversity, Rayleigh fading channels, Channel capacity, MIMO.

Achievable Unified Performance Analysis of Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes with Antenna Selection over Correlated Rayleigh Fading Channels
In this paper we evaluated the performance of orthogonal space-time block codes with transmit antenna selection (TAS/OSTBCs) for frequency-flat correlated Rayleigh fading channels. By effective use of the probability density function (pdf), the bit error probability (BEP) for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) and M-ary Quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) is derived first. Further we evaluate...
متن کاملCapacity and Error Probability Analysis for Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes over Correlated Rayleigh and Rician Fading Channels
In this paper, the capacity and error probability of orthogonal space-time block codes (STBCs) are presented for PAM/PSK/QAM modulation in correlated flat fading channels. We consider an equivalent scalar AWGN (additive white Gaussian noise) channel with a channel gain proportional to the Frobenius norm of the matrix channel. A unified approach to the error probability analysis for correlated R...
متن کاملIsometry during MIMO Joint Channel Estimation and Data Detection in Fading Channels
Due to the nature of multiplicative Rayleigh fading, symmetric space time block codes, and joint estimation and detection schemes, isometry (ambiguities in channel estimation and data detection) degrades MIMO system performances. Training breaks isometry but reduces capacity. Asymmetric space time block code mitigates isometry by replacing training with data-bearing asymmetric codewords. This p...

We document the performance of space– time block codes, which provide a new paradigm for transmission over Rayleigh fading channels using multiple transmit antennas. It has been shown that a complex orthogonal design that provides full diversity and full transmission rate for a space–time block code is not possible for more than two antennas. The objective of this paper is to provide the descri...
