Book excerpt: Merging layered space-time coding (LST), which provides high data rate transmission with space-time block coding (STBC) provides transmit diversity and improved performance to wireless communication systems. This architecture is known as multilayered space-time coding (MLSTC). In this thesis we propose a decreased complexity minimum mean squared error (MMSE) detector based on the sorted QR decomposition (SQRD), intended for the detection of multi-user STBC systems. The proposed decoder has been proven to enhance the overall performance of the MLSTC architecture. It offers a lower computational complexity than that offered by conventional detectors such as group interference cancellation (GIC) detectors. In addition, the number of receive antennas required to perform detection is smaller than that required by the GIC detector. Further, in order for all groups, which can be viewed as individual users, to benefit from a similar performance, unequal power allocation strategy will be employed to the system. We also concatenate OFDM to the MLSTC scheme in order to combat a frequency selective channel. We then extend this scheme to space-frequency-time (SFT) codes in order to extract the maximum frequency diversity available from the channel. In this thesis, we also propose a new transceiver architecture for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The proposed scheme borrows ideas from the MLSTC and threaded space-time coding (TSTC) schemes in an effort to maximize the diversity order while maintaining a low complexity detection. Specifically, the proposed scheme has a structure similar to that of the MLSTC while it employs a spatial interleaver (SI) in front of the MLSTC encoder. We analyze the proposed scheme where we derive an upper bound on the bit error rate and derive the diversity-multiplexing gain trade-off curve. We present several examples through which we demonstrate the superiority of the proposed scheme over existing schemes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few years witnessed a dramatic increase in the demand on high-rate reliable wireless communications. In order to meet these new requirements, resorting to Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) techniques was inevitable as they may offer high-rate reliable wireless communications without any additional bandwidth. In the case where the transmitter does not have any prior knowledge about the channel state information, space-time coding techniques have proved to efficiently exploit the MIMO channel degrees of freedom while taking advantage of the maximum diversity gain. On the other hand, the ML decoding complexity of Space-Time Codes (STCs) generally increases exponentially with the rate which imposes an important challenge to their incorporation in recent communications standards. Recognizing the importance of the low-complexity criterion in the STC design for practical considerations, this thesis focuses on the design of new low-complexity Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) where the transmitted code matrix can be expressed as a weighted linear combination of information symbols and we propose new codes that are decoded with a lower complexity than that of their rivals in the literature while providing better or slightly lower performance.

Book excerpt: Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology is promising for high-speed wireless communications without increasing the transmission band- width. Space time coding (STC) is a scheme that employs multiple antennas to increase transmission rate or to improve transmission quality. STC is used widely in mobile cellular networks, wireless local area networks (WLAN) and wireless metropolitan area networks (WMAN). However, there are still many unsolved or partially solved issues in STC. In this thesis, I propose a new STC design from cyclic design. I then propose a systematic method to design quasi-orthogonal space time block codes (QOSTBC) for an arbitrary number of transmit antennas, and derive the optimal constellation rotation angles to achieve full diversity. I also propose an analytical method to derive the exact error probabilities of orthogonal space time block codes (OSTBC). In order to improve the error performance, I introduce an adaptive power allocation scheme for OSTBC. Combining STC with continuous phase modulation (CPM) is an attractive solution for mobile commu- nications for which power is limited. Thus, I apply OSTBC to binary CPM with modulation index h = 0.5, and develop a simplified receiver for such scheme. Finally, I present a decoding method to reduce the complexity of QOSTBC without degrading its error performance.

This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space-time coding is an attractive technique to exploit the transmit diversity gain provided by a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless system. Regarding a space-time code design, some important concerns are high rates, full diversity, large coding gain (diversity products) and low decoding complexity. However, a tradeoff exists among these goals and constructing a good code that optimizes some or all of these goals is a very practical and interesting problem that has attracted a lot of attention in the past 10 years. Furthermore, other design issues may also matter and should be taken into account when one considers certain special scenarios to which the space-time coding technique is applied. In this dissertation, we study both the code design at the transmitter side and the fast decoding algorithm at the receiver side for space-time coding. The first topic attempts to achieve both low decoding overhead and maximum (full) diversity for space-time block codes (STBC). By deploying a linear detector at the receiver, we can efficiently reduce the decoding complexity for an STBC and always obtain soft outputs that are desired when the STBC is concatenated with a channel code as in a real system. In this dissertation, we propose a design criterion for STBC to achieve full diversity with a zero-forcing (ZF) or minimum mean-square error (MMSE) receiver. Two families of STBC, orthogonal STBC (OSTBC) and Toeplitz codes, which are known to have full diversity with ZF or MMSE receiver, indeed meet this criterion, as one may expect. We also show that the symbol rates of STBC under this criterion are upper bounded by 1. Subsequently, we propose a novel family of STBC that satisfy the criterion and thus achieve full diversity with ZF or MMSE receiver. Our newly proposed STBC are constructed by overlapping the 2 x 2 Alamouti code and hence are named overlapped Alamouti codes. The new codes are close to orthogonal and have asymptotically optimal symbol rates. Simulation results show that overlapped Alamouti codes significantly outperform Toeplitz codes for any number of transmit antennas and also outperform OSTBC when the number of transmit antennas is above 4. The second topic concerns the design of space-time trellis codes (STTC) for their applications in cooperative communication systems, where transmission among different relay nodes that cooperate with each other is essentially asynchronous. A family of STTC that can achieve full cooperative diversity order regardless of the node transmission delays has been proposed and it was shown that the construction of this STTC family can be reduced to the design of binary matrices that can keep full row rank no matter how their rows are shifted. We call such matrices as shift-full-rank (SFR) matrices. We propose a systematic method to construct all the SFR matrices and, in particular, the shortest (square) SFR (SSFR) matrices that are attractive as the associated STTC require the fewest memories and hence the lowest decoding complexity. By relaxing the restriction imposed on SFR matrices, we also propose two matrix variations, q -SFR and LT-SFR matrices. In an extended cooperative system model with fractional symbol delays whose maximum value is specified, the STTC generated from q -SFR and LT-SFR matrices can still achieve asynchronous full diversity. As a result, more eligible generator matrices than SFR ones become available and some better STTC in terms of coding gain may be found. Finally, the third topic is to speed up the decoding algorithm for the vertical Bell Laboratories layered space-time (V-BLAST) scheme, a full rate STBC that however does not exploit any transmit diversity gain. A fast recursive algorithm for V-BLAST with the optimal ordered successive interference cancellation (SIC) detection has been proposed and two improved algorithms for it have also been independently introduced by different authors lately. We first incorporate the existing improvements into the original fast recursive algorithm to give an algorithm that is the fastest known one for the optimal SIC detection of V-BLAST. Then, we propose a further improvement from which two new algorithms result. Relative to the fastest known one from the existing improvements, one new algorithm has a speedup of 1:3 times in both the number of multiplications and the number of additions, and the other new algorithm requires less memory storage.

This book was released on 2009-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for mobile communication systems with high data rates has dramatically increased in recent years. New methods are necessary in order to satisfy this huge communications demand, exploiting the limited resources such as bandwidth and power as efficient as possible. MIMO systems with multiple antenna elements at both link ends are an efficient solution for future wireless communications systems as they provide high data rates by exploiting the spatial domain under the constraints of limited bandwidth and transmit power. "Space-Time Block Coding for Multiple Antenna Systems" is devoted to space-time coding, a MIMO transmit strategy which exploits transmit diversity and high reliability systems. The concept of space- time coding is explained in a systematic way including simulation examples. The book includes algorithm design and detailed performance study of space-time codes for multiple-antenna systems with and without channel state information at the transmitter. This valuable resource will appeal to graduate and postgraduate students, researchers and engineers involved in design and implementation of STC for MIMO systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well understood that MIMO technology could enhance the reliability of wireless communication and increase the channel capacity. The design of space-time code to explore the benefit provided by the multi-antenna systems is of key importance. This dissertation addresses several issues concerning the design of space-time code. The following is a brief description of these issues and our contributions. Cyclic division algebra (CDA) has been introduced as a means to construct full-rate nonvanishing determinant STBC (space-time block code), which achieves the diversity-multiplexing trade-off and has a very good performance. There are two steps to construct CDA-based nonvanishing determinant STBC: construction of a cyclic extension over [Special characters omitted.] (i) and finding a non-norm element. For the first step we proposed a new up-to-down construction method. With this new method we find a broad range of cyclic extensions over [Special characters omitted.] (i), which encompasses all the previous constructions. For the second step, we give new criteria for the non-norm element. Non-norm elements found by these new criteria have smaller absolute values, hence the resulted STBC has a better coding gain. The well-known design criteria for space-time code is proposed by Guey-Fitz-Bell-Kuo in 1996 and Tarokh-Seshadri-Calderbank in 1998. The derivation of the design criteria is based on the assumption that the received signals are decoded with an ML receiver. One important issue seems to be long ignored: there is no design criterion for space-time code decoded with suboptimal receivers. Only until recently that Zhang-Liu-Wong and Shang-Xia studied the full diversity codes with linear receivers. We address the issue in a much broader sense. We proposed a more general receiver structure called PIC (partial interference cancellation) group decoding. A PIC group decoding can be viewed as an intermediate decoding algorithm between linear decoding and ML decoding. It encompasses both linear decoding and ML decoding as its two extremes. We also derived a design criterion for space-time codes with PIC receivers to achieve full diversity. The full diversity criteria for codes with ML receivers and linear receivers are special cases of our new design criterion. In many applications, wireless communication devices are limited by size or hardware complexity to one antenna. Cooperative communication was introduced for communication networks with single-antenna nodes to exploit the multi-path diversity. In cooperative communications, a few nodes positioned between the source node and destination node are served as the relay nodes. One important problem for cooperative communication networks is the time-asynchronism among the relay nodes. We propose a distributed space-time coding scheme called distributed linear convolutional space-time code (DLC-STC) to address this problem. We also give systematic construction methods of DLC-STC which achieves full diversity without time synchronization among the relay nodes. Furthermore, we show that our proposed DLC-STC achieves full diversity even with suboptimal receivers such as ZF/MMSE receiver and DFE receiver.
