Abstract :
We propose new joint distributed Space-Time Block Code (STBC)-Distributed Turbo Product Code (DTPC) by generating the vertical parity on the relay and transmitting it to the destination using STBC on the source and relay. We tested our proposed system in a fast fading environment on the three channels connecting the three nodes in the cooperative network. Results show an overall gain that can reach 3.5dB over the non-cooperative system at 10-5 Bit Error Rate (BER).
