Space-Time Coding Solution to the Two-Antenna Interference ProblemGeoghegan, Mark, Boucher, Louis 10 1900 (has links)
ITC/USA 2014 Conference Proceedings / The Fiftieth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 20-23, 2014 / Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, San Diego, CA / In order to provide reliable line-of-sight communications, test aircraft typically use two transmit antennas to create top and bottom hemispherical patterns that cover the full range of possible aircraft orientations. The two transmit signals are normally generated by a single transmitter with the power being split between the two antennas. Although this configuration is straightforward and easy to implement, problems can arise due to the two signals constructively and destructively interfering with each other. This can result in the composite antenna pattern having periodic nulls with a depth and geometric spacing dependent upon the amplitude and phase differences of the two transmitted signals. This problem is usually addressed by either unevenly splitting the transmit power between the two antennas, or by using two separate transmitters at different frequencies. Unfortunately, these methods have drawbacks that require either system performance or cost trade-offs. This paper discusses the use of Space-Time Coding to eliminate this antenna interaction by transmitting modified waveforms that simultaneously allow for both full power transmission and single-channel operation. This approach effectively restores the nominal antenna performance, thereby resulting in better overall coverage and less pattern-induced dropouts. Telemetry performance results from recent flight testing are presented to validate the benefits of this approach.

A multi-user cooperative diversity for wireless local area networksChen, J, Djouani, K 26 November 2008 (has links)
In this paper, an idea of using space-time block coding (STBC) in multi-user cooperative diversity has been
exploited to improve the performance of the transmission in wireless local area networks. The theoretical
and simulation results show that, using STBC approaches can always achieve the better performance than
existing techniques without introducing the space-time coding. By analyzing the throughput and frame error
ratio (FER) of the two different STBC cooperative schemes, we find the trade-off between throughput and
reliability. The location of the relay is crucial to the performance, which supposes a rule for future crosslayer
design.

Multiple symbol decoding of differential space-time codesSinghal, Rohit 30 September 2004 (has links)
Multiple-symbol detection of space-time differential codes (MS-STDC) decodes N consecutive space-time symbols using maximum likelihood (ML) sequence detection to gain in performance over the conventional differential detection scheme. However its computational complexity is exponential in N . A fast algorithm for implementing the MD-STDC in block-fading channels with complexity O(N 4) is developed. Its performance in both block-fading and symbol-by-symbol fading channels is demonstrated through simulations. Set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) coupled with rate compatible punctured convolution code (RCPC) and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is employed as a generalized multiple description source coder with robustness to channel errors. We propose a serial concatenation of the above with a differential space-time code (STDC) and invoke an iterative joint source channel decoding procedure for decoding differentially space-time coded multiple descriptions. Experiments show a gain of up to 5 dB in PSNR with four iterations for image transmission in the absence of channel state information (CSI) at the receiver. A serial concatenation of SPIHT
+ RCPC/CRC is also considered with space-time codes (STC) instead of STDC. Experiments show a gain of up to 7 dB with four iterations in the absence of CSI

Advanced receivers for space-time block-coded single-carrier transmissions over frequency-selective fading channelsWavegedara, Kapila Chandika B. 05 1900 (has links)
In recent years, space-time block coding (STBC) has emerged as an effective transmit-diversity technique to combat the detrimental effects of channel fading. In addition to STBC, high-order modulation schemes will be used in future wireless communication systems aiming to provide ubiquitous-broadband wireless access. Hence, advanced receiver schemes are necessary to achieve high performance. In this thesis, advanced and computationally-efficient receiver schemes are investigated and developed for single-carrier space-time (ST) block-coded transmissions over frequency-selective fading (FSF) channels.
First, we develop an MMSE-based turbo equalization scheme for Alamouti ST block-coded systems. A semi-analytical method to estimate the bit error rate (BER) is devised. Our results show that the proposed turbo equalization scheme offers significant performance improvements over one-pass equalization. Second, we analyze the convergence behavior of the proposed turbo equalization scheme for Alamouti ST block-coded systems using the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT)-band chart technique.
Third, burst-wise (BW)-STBC is applied for uplink transmission over FSF channels in block-spread-CDMA systems with multiuser interference-free reception. The performances of different decision feedback sequence estimation (DFSE) schemes are investigated. A new scheme combining frequency-domain (FD) linear equalization and modified unwhitened-DFSE is proposed. The proposed scheme is very promising as the error-floor behavior observed in the existing unwhitened DFSE schemes is eliminated.
Fourth, we develop a FD-MMSE-based turbo equalization scheme for the downlink of ST block-coded CDMA systems. We adopt BW-STBC instead of Alamouti symbol-wise (SW)-STBC considered for WCDMA systems and demonstrate its superior performance in FSF channels. Block spreading is shown to be more desirable than conventional spreading to improve performance using turbo equalization. We also devise approximate implementations (AprxImpls) that offer better trade-offs between performance and complexity. Semi-analytical upper bounds on the BER are derived.
Fifth, turbo multicode detection is investigated for ST block-coded downlink transmission in DS-CDMA systems. We propose symbol-by-symbol and chip-by-chip FD-MMSE-based multicode detectors. An iterative channel estimation scheme is also proposed. The proposed turbo multicode detection scheme offers significant performance improvements compared with non-iterative multicode detection. Finally, the impact of channel estimation errors on the performance of MMSE-based turbo equalization in ST block-coded CDMA systems is investigated.

Power Allocation in Cooperative Space-Time Coded Wireless Relay NetworksAasem, Alyahya 29 August 2011 (has links)
Cooperative communications is a new wireless networking paradigm that allows networking nodes to collaborate through distributed transmission and signal processing to implement spatial and time signal diversity to combat the effects of fading channels. These systems exploit the wireless broadcast advantage, where transmissions from an omnidirectional antenna can be received by networking nodes that lie within its communication range. Specifically, in cooperative relaying systems the source broadcasts a message to a number of cooperative relays, which in turn resend a processed version of the information to the intended destination nodes, emulating antenna array effects. The destination nodes combine the signals received from the collaborating relays, either to increase the capacity of communication links or to increase the reliability of transmissions between the source and the destination. This is accomplished with an approach similar to that used in recently introduced space-time coding techniques for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems.

Distributed Space-Time Block Codes in Wireless Cooperative NetworksYI, ZHIHANG 02 July 2009 (has links)
In cooperative networks, relays cooperate and form a distributed multi-antenna system to provide spatial diversity. In order to achieve high bandwidth efficiency, distributed space-time block codes (DSTBCs) are proposed and have been studied extensively.
Among all DSTBCs, this thesis focuses on the codes which are single-symbol maximum likelihood (ML) decodable and can achieve the full diversity order.
This thesis presents four works on single-symbol ML decodable DSTBCs. The first work proposes the row-monomial distributed orthogonal space-time block codes (DOSTBCs). We find an upper bound of the data-rate of the row-monomial DOSTBC and construct the codes achieving this upper bound. In the second work, we first study the general DOSTBCs and derive an upper bound of the data-rate of the DOSTBC. Secondly, we propose the row-monomial DOSTBCs with channel phase information (DOSTBCs-CPI) and derive an upper bound of the data-rate of those codes. Furthermore, we find the actual row-monomial DOSTBCs-CPI which achieve the upper bound of the data-rate.
In the third and fourth works of this thesis, we focus on error performance analysis of single-symbol ML decodable DSTBCs. Specifically, we study the distributed Alamouti's code in dissimilar cooperative networks. In the third work, we assume that the relays are blind relays and we derive two very accurate approximate bit error rate (BER) expressions of the distributed Alamouti's code. In the fourth work, we assume that the relays are CSI-assisted relays. When those CSI-assisted relays adopt the amplifying coefficients that was proposed in [33] and widely used in many previous publications, upper and lower bounds of the BER of the distributed Alamouti's code are derived. Very surprisingly, the lower bound indicates that the code cannot achieve the full diversity order when the CSI-assisted relays adopt the amplifying coefficients proposed in [33]. Therefore, we propose a new threshold-based amplifying coefficient and it makes the code achieve the full diversity order two. Moreover, three optimum and one suboptimum schemes are developed to calculate the threshold used in this new amplifying coefficient. / Thesis (Ph.D, Electrical & Computer Engineering) -- Queen's University, 2009-06-27 19:07:47.066

Performance of high rate space-time trellis coded modulation in fading channels.Ayodeji, Sokoya Oludare. January 2005 (has links)
Future wireless communication systems promise to offer a variety of multimedia services which require reliable transmission at high data rates over wireless links. Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems have received a great deal of attention because they provide very high data rates for such links. Theoretical studies have shown that the quality provided by MIMO systems can be increased by using space-time codes. Space-time codes combine both space (antenna) and time diversity in the transmitter to increase the efficiency of MIMO system. The three primary approaches, layered spacetime architecture, space-time trellis coding (STTC) and space-time block coding (STBC) represent a way to investigate transmitter-based signal processing for diversity exploitation and interference suppression. The advantages of STBC (i.e. low decoding complexity) and STTC (i.e. TCM encoder structure) can be used to design a high rate space-time trellis coded modulation (HR-STTCM). Most space-time codes designs are based on the assumption of perfect channel state information at the receiver so as to make coherent decoding possible. However, accurate channel estimation requires a long training sequence that lowers spectral efficiency. Part of this dissertation focuses on the performance of HR-STTCM under non-coherent detection where there is imperfect channel state information and also in environment where the channel experiences rapid fading. Prior work on space-time codes with particular reference to STBC systems in multiuser environment has not adequately addressed the performance of the decoupled user signalto-noise ratio. Part of this thesis enumerates from a signal-to-noise ratio point of view the performance of the STBC systems in multiuser environment and also the performance of the HR-STTCM in such environment. The bit/frame error performance of space-time codes in fading channels can be evaluated using different approaches. The Chemoff upper-bound combined with the pair state generalized transfer function bound approach or the modified state transition diagram transfer function bound approach has been widely used in literature. However, although readily detennined, this bound can be too loose over nonnal signal-to-noise ranges of interest. Other approaches, based on the exact calculation of the pairwise error probabilities, are often too cumbersome. A simple exact numerical technique, for calculating, within any desired degree of accuracy, of the pairwise error probability of the HR-STTCM scheme over Rayleigh fading channel is proposed in this dissertation. / Thesis (M.Sc.Eng.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, 2005.
