Abstract

In this paper, an iterative decoding technique for cooperative space-time block coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (STBC-OFDM) systems is proposed to mitigate the intercarrier interference (ICI) caused by multiple carrier frequency offsets (CFOs) in cooperative transmission. The proposed iterative decoding technique is shown to mitigate the noise enhancement effect on the STBC-OFDM signals caused by multiple CFOs, and be effective in reducing ICI especially when the system has a large FFT size and a large multiple CFOs.
