一种时空频分组码编码方案和检测算法

空时编码作为对抗多径衰落的有效方法，近年来已经成为热门研究领域。空时分组码(STBC)的正交设计可以在接收端进行线性最大比合并解码，实现了高编码增益、大分集度和低译码复杂度。这种空时分组码在单个载波多个不同天线和时间上编码，实现了空间和时间的分集，但并没有实现频率的分集，分集度有限。本文将单载波的STBC扩展到多个载波，提出了一种时、空、频分组码(STFBC)的编码方案。这种编码在相同的码速率下，实现了比STBC更大的分集度和更高的编码增益。给出了基于这种编码方案的两种检测算法一线性合并最大似然检测(MLD)算法和线性合并解相关检测(DD)算法。仿真结果表明这种时空频分组码的编码方法和检测算法较STBC具有更好的性能。

Space-time trellis and space-time block coding versus adaptive Modulation and coding aided OFDM for wideband channels

The achievable performance of channel coded space-time trellis (STT) codes and space-time block (STB) codes transmitted over wideband channels is studied in the context of schemes having an effective throughput of 2 bits/symbol (BPS) and 3 BPS. At high implementational complexities, the best performance was typically provided by Alamouti's unity-rate G/sub 2/ code in both the 2-BPS and 3-BPS scenarios. However, if a low complexity implementation is sought, the 3-BPS 8PSK space-time trellis code outperforms the G/sub 2/ code. The G/sub 2/ space-time block code is also combined with symbol-by-symbol adaptive orthogonal frequency division multiplex (AOFDM) modems and turbo convolutional channel codecs for enhancing the system's performance. It was concluded that upon exploiting the diversity effect of the G/sub 2/ space-time block code, the channel-induced fading effects are mitigated, and therefore, the benefits of adaptive modulation erode. In other words, once the time- and frequency-domain fades of the wideband channel have been counteracted by the diversity-aided G/sub 2/ code, the benefits of adaptive modulation erode, and hence, it is sufficient to employ fixed-mode modems. Therefore, the low-complexity approach of mitigating the effects of fading can be viewed as employing a single-transmitter, single-receiver-based AOFDM modem. By contrast, it is sufficient to employ fixed-mode OFDM modems when the added complexity of a two-transmitter G/sub 2/ scheme is affordable.     

A complementary codes pilot-based transmitter diversity technique for OFDM systems

This letter presents a complementary codes pilot-based space-time block code/orthogonal frequency division multiplex (STBC/OFDM) system. In this system, a pair of complementary codes transmitted in a pre-defined order with the OFDM data signals is used as the pilot signals in a two-antenna transmitter diversity system, and used to estimate the channels for optimal data detection at the receiver side. A complete receiver architecture has been designed and Monte Carlo simulations have been used to verify the performance of the system in mobile radio fading channels.     

Turbo processing in transmit antenna diversity systems

We consider turbo-trellis-coded transmission over fading multiple-input-multiple-output (M1M0) channels with transmit diversity using space-time block codes. We give a new view on space-time block codes as a transformation of the fading MIMO channel towards a Gaussian single-input-single-output (siso) channel and provide analytical results on the BER of space-time block codes. Furthermore, we describe the concatenation of Turbo-TCM with a space-time block code and show that in addition to the transmit diversity substantial benefits can be obtained by turbo iterations as long as the channel is time-varying during transmission of a coded block or frequency hopping is applied. Finally, a double iterative scheme for turbo equalization and turbo decoding of the concatenation of Turbo-TCM and space-time block code in frequency-selective MIMO channels is described.     

Distributive High-Rate Space–Frequency Codes Achieving Full Cooperative and Multipath Diversities for Asynchronous Cooperative Communications

In user-cooperative communications, relay nodes are usually asynchronous. By realizing that the processing in the frequency domain is insensitive to the errors in the time domain, Mei and Shin recently applied the space-time-coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) technique to achieve full cooperative diversity for asynchronous cooperative communications, where orthogonal space-time block codes (particularly the Alamouti code) were used for relay nodes. In this paper, we consider asynchronous cooperative communications, and the channels from one node to another node are frequency-selective fading. We propose a high-rate space-frequency coding method and prove that it can achieve both cooperative and multipath diversities. Simulation results are shown to verify the performance of the constructed codes.     

Decision-Feedback Receiver for Quasi-Orthogonal Space-Time Coded OFDM Using Correlative Coding Over Fast Fading Channels

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is robust against frequency selective fading, but it is very vulnerable to time selective fading. In quasi-orthogonal space-time coded OFDM (ST-OFDM) systems, channel variations cause not only inter-carrier interference among different subcarriers in one OFDM block, but also inter-transmit-antenna interference (ITAI). When applied in fast fading channels, common ST-ODFM receivers usually suffer from an irreducible error floor. In this letter, we apply frequency-domain correlative coding combined with a modified decision-feedback detection scheme to effectively suppress the error floor of quasi-orthogonal ST-OFDM over fast fading channels. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme in mitigating the effects of channel time selectivity is demonstrated through comparison with existing schemes such as zero-forcing, two-stage zero-forcing, and sequential decision feedback estimation     

Obtaining full-diversity space-frequency codes from space-time codes via mapping

This paper considers the problem of space-frequency code design for frequency-selective multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation. We show that space-time codes achieving full diversity in quasistatic flat fading environment can be used to construct space-frequency codes that can achieve the maximum diversity available in frequency-selective MIMO fading channels. Since the codes are constructed via a simple mapping from space-time codes to space-frequency codes, the abundant classes of existing space-time block and trellis codes can be used for full diversity transmission in MIMO-OFDM systems. The proposed mapping provides a tradeoff between the achieved diversity order and the symbol rate. Moreover, we characterize the performance of the space-frequency codes obtained via the mapping by finding lower and upper bounds on their coding advantages as functions of the coding advantages of the underlying space-time codes. This result will allow us to investigate the effects of the delay distribution and the power distribution of the channel impulse responses on the performance of the resulting space-frequency codes. Extensive simulation results are also presented to illustrate and support the theory.
