  • Abstract
    This paper addresses the problem of channel estimation and tracking for space-time block coding. The coding/decoding technique allows using Kalman smoothing in estimating time-selective fading channels. In the simulations it is shown that this technique can preserve the orthogonality property of the decoding matrix even for time-selective channels. A realistic channel model described in COST 207 project is used in our examples.
