| Abstract: | In this letter, we propose an orthogonal spacetime- frequency block code for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (STFBC-OFDM) systems, newly designed to be robust against both time- and frequency-selective fading. The performance of the proposed system is analyzed in spatially uncorrelated time-varying multipath Rayleigh-fading channels. The analytic results, which closely match the numerical results, show that the proposed system outperforms STBC-OFDM in time-varying channels and SFBC-OFDM in frequency-selective fading channels. |
