A Randomization Technique for Non-Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 non-orthogonal space-time codes is further degraded by “block-interference” inherent in the code construction. In this paper we present a general approach in which the non-orthogonality is randomized with a sequence of pseudo-random unitary transformations.

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 کاملSingle-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...
متن کاملOn Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes and Packings on the Grassmann Manifold
We show that orthogonal space-time block codes may be identified with packings on the Grassmann manifold. We describe a general criterion for packings on the Grassmann manifold that yield coherent space-time constellations with the same code properties that make orthogonal space-time block codes so favorable. As an example, we point out that the rate 3/4 orthogonal space-time block code motivat...

ii PhD Thesis by Gbenga Owojaiye University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, Herts. AL10 9AB, United Kingdom Abstract In this thesis, space-time block codes originally developed for multiple antenna systems are extended to cooperative multi-hop networks. The designs are applicable to any wireless network setting especially cellular, adhoc and sensor networks where space limitations preclude the use ...
متن کاملOn an Orthogonal Space-Time-Polarization Block Code
Over the past several years, diversity methods such as space, time, and polarization diversity have been successfully implemented in wireless communications systems. Orthogonal space-time block codes efficiently combine space and time diversity, and they have been studied in detail. Polarization diversity has also been studied, however it is usually considered in a simple concatenation with oth...
