Communication systems which employ multiple transmit and receive antenna-element arrays. Data streams for transmission may be interleaved among the transmit antenna elements in order to reduce decision errors. Turbo processing of equalizer output from a number of layers in a layered space-time processing architecture may be employed to reduce decision errors. Additionally, space-time equalization may be performed to maximize signal to noise ratio such as via minimum mean square error processing, rather than zero forcing, in order to achieve the Shannon limit, reduce multi-path effects and/or reduce intersymbol interference. Moreover, the receiver can select number and/or identity of receive antenna elements from among a larger group in order to optimize performance of the system. |
