Transmit diversity is an efficient diversity technique to improve performance and spectrum efficiency in wireless communication . Coding scheme designed for the transmit diversity is called space-time coding. In this paper, we propose a training structure to apply the transmit diversity to improve the performance of IEEE802.11a OFDM systems. Based on this training structure, we propose a channel estimation scheme using curve fitting. Also we compare and evaluate the performance of space-time codes. The performance of both diversity using space-time codes and channel estimation scheme is investigated by computer simulation in quasi-static 2-ray rayleigh fading environment.

시공간 블록부호는 송신단에서 여러 개의 안테나를 사용하여 무선 통신의 신뢰도를 높인다. 그런데 4개의 송신안테나를 사용하는 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 차수 4와 전송률 1을 동시에 얻을 수 없다. 직교 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 차수 4를 유지하지만 전송률에서 손해를 보는 반면, 준직교 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 이득에서 손해를 보면서 전송률 1을 유지한다. 본 논문에서는 준직교 시공간 블록부호의 복호기에서 최대 우도 복호 방법으로 비트별 연성결정값을 출력하고, 터보부호와 연접하여 다양한 전송률에서 직교 및 준직교 시공간 블록부호의 성능을 비교하였다.

In this paper a new space-time diversity relaying strategy using cooperative communication technique is proposed. More than one relaying terminals are included in one cooperative group to share their state information, such as frame error rate and channel state information. The best terminals are selected to send bit information using space-time diversity relay system. An implementation for the proposed scheme is also presented using the TDMA cooperative protocol. The resulting receive signal to transmit signal ratio and computer simulation demonstrate that the proposed strategy outperforms the conventional cooperative system.

In this paper, design of quasi-cyclic(QC) low-density parity-check codes is proposed to have full diversity for space-time bit-interleaved coded modulation(ST-BICM) systems. Necessary and sufficient conditions that the proposed scheme has full diversity are proved as the condition that submatrices corresponding to the system part of codewords are invertible. And new construction method of binary invertible matrices for QC LDPC codes in ST-BICM systems are also proposed and modification for parity-check matrices are also explained.

This paper compares the performances with space time coding and cyclic delay diversity techniques for OFDM systems in interference-limited environments. While a communication system usually use a diversity technique to improve its own performance, it is also necessary to consider the interference effects to other users as well if the system is operated in interference-limited environments. When there is no interference from or to other users, space time coding technique results in better performance than cyclic delay diversity. However, cyclic delay diversity can be better than space time coding if interferences to other users are considered.

A new space-time cooperative communication relaying strategy with assistant or management terminals is proposed in multi-hop wireless communication systems. More than one relaying terminals are included in one cooperative group to share the state information such as frame error rate and channel information. Among the cooperative group, the best ones are selected to send bit information using space-time codes. An implementation for the proposed scheme is also presented using a TDMA cooperative protocol. Receive signal to transmit signal ratio($E_r/E_s$) and computer simulation show the strategy outperform the conventional cooperative system.

The next generation of wireless communication system is expected to provide users with wireless multimedia services such as high speed internet access and wireless mobile computing. Depending on the Quality of Service(QoS) requirements and different applications per user, many wireless communication systems have been proposed. The simple decoding algorithm of space-time block coding is based on the assumption of flat fading channel, where no intersymbol interference exists. In this paper, we propose to combine space-time transmit diversity with adaptive equalizer. The proposed system effectively eliminates interference caused by multipath environment. Simulation results show that the proposed system provides improved bit error rate performance.

ISI (Inter Symbol Interference) reduces the performance of UAComm (Underwater Acoustic Communication). This paper shows that the performance of UAComm can be improved through the spatiotemporal diversity method that is the combination of spatial diversity and temporal diversity methods. By using spatiotemporal diversity, the array aperture was reduced to increase the efficiency of the UAComm system. It is also verified using the experimental data of BLAC18 (Biomimetic Long range Acoustic Communication 18) conducted in October 2018.

In this paper, we propose a bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) a lied to improved super-orthogonal space-time block code(SOSTBC). The proposed system achieves a greater diversity gain than that of super-orthogonal space-time trellis code (SOSTTC) with similar decoding complexity. Since, using the improved SOSTBC, the bit diversity carl be full diversity of SOSTBC. In contrast, BICM applied to Jafarkhani's SOSTBC is difficult to achieve a greater diversity gain than that of SOSTTC, because every bit diversity of the system is 1.
