Concatenated space-time codes for quasi-static fading channels: constrained capacity and code design

چکیده
Abstract— The problem of designing codes with close-tocapacity performance on the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) quasi-static fading channel (QSFC) is addressed. We consider three different coding schemes – namely, direct transmission of random-like codes, concatenation with linear processing orthogonal space-time block codes (o-STBC) and concatenation with space-time trellis codes (STTC). The constrained modulation outage capacity of each of these schemes is computed. It is shown how Low-density Parity Check (LDPC) codes may be used to approach capacity in these cases. For the STTC, the serial concatenation scheme of [1] turns out to have close to capacity performance.

Full rate space-time turbo codes
This paper proposes a class of full space diversity full rate space-time turbo codes. Both parallel concatenated and serially concatenated codes are designed. The full space diversity design is facilitated by a rank theory. Compared with space-time trellis codes, the simulations show the space-time turbo codes have excellent performance in both quasi-static fading channels and time varying fadi...

Trellis coded modulation (TCM) is a bandwidth efficient transmission scheme that can achieve high coding gain by integrating coding and modulation. This paper presents an analytical expression for the error event probability of concatenated space–time block coding with TCM which reveals some dominant factors affecting the system performance over slow fading channels when perfect interleavers ar...

In this paper, we consider the design of space–time overlays to upgrade single-antenna wireless communication systems to efficiently accommodate multiple transmit antennas. We define the overlay constraint such that the signal transmitted from the first antenna in the upgraded system is the same as that in the single-antenna system. The signals transmitted from the remaining antennas are design...

Analytical expressions giving the performance of serially concatenated space-time codes are provided. These expressions lead to guidelines for achieving large gains through serial concatenation for space-time codes in wireless fading channels. They are similar to guidelines previously developed for regular convolutional codes in additive Gaussian noise channels. However, the justiication for th...
