Abstract

Transmit diversity using STBC(Space Time Block Code) provides the same diversity gain as MRRC(Maximal Ratio Receiver Combining), when the fading channel is constant across two consecutive symbols. But, when the channel condition is changed for the two consecutive symbols, the transmit diversity using STBC does not offer good performance due to the large doppler shift. In this paper, we have proposed a interference cancellation scheme for performance enhancement in transmit diversity using STBC over time selective fading channel. Simulation results for various doppler shift rates are presented for the transmit diversity using the proposed scheme.
