In this paper, we propose a new CL-OSTBC (Closed Loop Orthogonal Space-Time Block Code) scheme for four transmit antennas and compare the scheme with existing closed loop schemes on the performance of BER (Bit Error Rate). In the proposed scheme, a transmitter receives channel feedback information and combines modulated symbols by the symbol combiner, and transmits the symbols encoded by the space-time block encoder. As a result, the proposed scheme achieves full-rate and maximal channel gains by more efficient utilization of the channel feedback information. Moreover, the scheme can reduce computation complexity by using a linear detector. Simulation results on the BER performance show that the proposed CL-OSTBC scheme outperforms existing CL-OSTBC schemes.

This paper proposes new space-time block codes achieving full rate and full diversity for QAM and quasi-static Rayleigh fading channels when using any number of transmit antennas larger than 3 transmit antennas. These codes are constructed by serially concatenating the constellation rotating $precoders^{[4,5]}$ with the Alamouti scheme$3^{[3]}$ Bike the conventional A-ST-CR code$^{[6,7]}$. Computer simulations show that the proposed codes achieve approximately 1.3dB, 1.4dB and 1.5dB larger coding gains than the ST-CR $codes^{[4,5]}$ for QPSK with 3, 4 and 5 transmit antennas, respectively, and about 3dB for 16QAM with 3 transmit antennas.

In this paper we apply space-time block code with multiple transmitter/receiver antennas to the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) terrestrial broadcasting systems. Especially, we apply Aiamouti scheme with two transmitter antennas and multiple receiver antennas to the ATSC broadcasting system. Also. diversity technique with multiple receiver antennas and space-time block code scheme with multiple transmitter/receiver antennas are compared. Our simulation results show that the ATSC broadcasting system with multiple transmitter/receiver antennas has an extremely good performance than the scheme with single transmitter/receiver antenna in the Rayleigh fading channel.

The performances of turbo-coded space-time block coding (STBC) schemes are subject to how soft decision detection (SDD) information are generated from the STBC decoder. For this reason, we have to pay particular attention to estimation of SDD. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a turbo coded STBC scheme depending on the accuracy of the SDD. Recently, a new quasi orthogonal STBC (QO-STBC) scheme using a noise whitened filter was proposed in order to reduce noise enhancing effect of zero forcing detection process. This QO-STBC scheme was proven to be efficient in computational complexity compared to the other conventional QO-STBC schemes. In this paper, we first present detailed mathematical analysis on the noise whitened QO-STBC scheme, and by using the result we propose the optimum SDD method.

This paper proposes a random sign reversal technique in space frequency block code for single carrier modulation. The traditional space time and frequency block coding technique may be confronted with radio environments openly, severe radio hijacking problems are to be overcome. In order to avoid such an open radio issue, random coded data protection technique for space-time block code was proposed, but this algorithm can change channel combination per an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing block. This kind of slow switching increases the probability that nearby receivers will detect the transmitted data. This paper proposes a fast switching algorithm per data symbols' basis which is a random sign reversal technique in space frequency block code for Single Carrier Modulation. It is shown in simulation that the proposed one has a superior performance in comparison with the performance of the receiver which do not know the random timing sequence of sign reversal.

Space-time coding was designed for an efficient transmit diversity technique to improve performance of wireless communication. For the transmit diversity using space-time coding, the receiver requires to estimate channel parameters corresponding to each transmit antennas. In this paper, we propose an efficient channel estimation scheme based on trigonometric polynomial approximation in OFDM systems with transmit diversity using space-time coding. The proposed scheme is more efficient than the conventional scheme in terms of the computational complexity. For QAM modulation, when the size of FFH is 128, the conventional scheme with significant tap caching of 7 requires 9852 complex multiplications for TU, HT and BU channels. But the proposed scheme requires 2560, 7680 and 3584 complex multiplications for TU, HT and BU channels, respectively. Especially, for channels with smaller Doppler frequency and delay spreads, the proposed scheme has the improved BER performance and complexity. In addition, we evaluate the performance of maximum delay spread estimation in unknown channel. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated by computer simulation in various multi-path fading environments.

In this paper, we analyze and simulate co-channel interference (CCI) mitigation method for cooperative communication systems employing decode-and-forward relays. In co-channel interference mitigation method, A source transmits signals that are encoded by orthogonal code. Then, the receiver can distinguish its own signals form the received signals by using the orthogonal code which is already known to the receiver. The orthogonal codes applied to this paper are orthogonal Gold codes. However, we can employ other codes, which have orthogonality, as the orthogonal code. In addition, we utilize a space time block coding (STBC) scheme for enhancing the system performance by obtaining additional array gain.
