A METHOD OF IDENTIFYING A SPACE-TIME ENCODED SIGNAL IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method of identifying a space-time encoded signal in a wireless communication system having at least two different decoder types is disclosed. The method includes receiving at least one pilot signal from a transmitting end, wherein the pilot signal is represented by either Type 0 or Type 1, determining which of Type 0 or Type 1 is represented in the received pilot signal, and activating the space-time decoder for performing space-time decoding, if the pilot signal is Type 1.
