Performance Analysis of Space-Time Modulation over Time-Correlated Rayleigh Fading Channels

Abstmct In th i s paper, we address the problem of characterizing the performance of space-time modulat i on in t ime-correlated fading environment. We show that the space-time signals of square size achieving full diversity in quasi-static fading channels can also achieve full diversity i n t ime-correlated fading channels, irrespectively of the t i m e correlation matr ix . We also generalize the notion of the diversity p roduc t to include t h e effect of t empora l correlation.
