Abstract :
In order to get the benefit of multiple antenna systems with less hardware complexity and increased data rate, Transmit Antenna Selection (TAS) is popular in Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Systems. The performance TAS systems can be further enhanced with Orthogonal Space Time Block Codes. In this paper, we present Transmit Antenna Selection (TAS) technique based on Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) scheme with single antenna selection for image transmission. The performance analysis of the system is carried out under Rician fading channels for image input. We have proposed a TAS/MRC system in Simulink with advancement in channel design and receive diversity techniques along with feedback models. The Bit Error Rate (BER) analysis is performed for the combinations of number of transmit and receive antennas for TAS/MRC system for Rician fading environments.
