Results on code design for transmitter diversity in fading

This paper presents code design principles and gives some example codes for high performance transmitter diversity systems in frequency nonselective Rayleigh fading. Transmitter diversity is a good way to achieve diversity on any forward link (i.e. infrastructure to mobile) and is often employed when low mobility could be encountered (e.g. PCS or fixed wireless telephony). An accurate model for the sampled output of the matched filter in narrowband wireless transmission using transmitter diversity is examined
