The present invention relates to a method of establishing transmit diversity in a multi-carrier communication system using multiple antennas. The method comprises a transformation step (S10) applied to a sequence of transmission symbols for generating a plurality of transmission streams according to a pre-determined transformation rule. A step (S12) relates to the assignment of transmission stream elements in each transmission stream, both in frequency and time to multiple carriers for non-differential type transmit diversity or at least in frequency for differential type transmit diversity. Therefore, the present invention allows for a simple and flexible diversity scheme for reliable data transmission and reception at high data rates. |
