Abstract :
Simulation results for the comparative performance of a number of space-time coding (STC) schemes in a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) channel are presented and compared with a single-antenna benchmark and two-antenna space-time transit diversity (STTD) scheme. Both the space-time trellis coding (STTC) and BLAST approaches offer high spectral efficiencies, but STTC outperforms BLAST in terms of its power efficiency
