Abstract :
A space-time/space-time-frequency-coding-based 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) power line communication system that employs a maximum ratio combining receiver, also called a rake receiver, not only improves the bit error rate performance (relative to existing schemes) but is also insensitive to crosstalk.
