<p>The present invention presents a method and apparatus for phase hopping and space-time coding signals for transmission on multiple antennas (160,162,164,166). The method and apparatus provides expansion of a N x N space time block code to a M x M space time block code, where Mgt;N, by using phase hopping on the symbols within the N x N space time block code to allow transmission of the space time block code on a number of diversity antennas greater than N . A result of M antenna diversity may be achieved for M transmit antennas.</p> |
