SC-QOSTFBC CODES FOR MIMO TRANSMITTERS

摘要

A SC-QOSTFBC (Single Carrier-Quasi Orthogonal Space Time Frequency Block Code) for 4 transmit antennas in the domain of wireless communication, and coding and decoding schemes useful in the context of MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) or MISO (Multiple Input Single Output) communications especially used in conjunction of OFDM-like transmission schemes. These codes are based on sending on a first antenna a constellation corresponding to what would be sent in a mono antenna scheme, and sending equivalent constellations on the other antennas. The codes are designed to keep a low-PAPR property at each transmit antenna when associated with DFT spread OFDM.
