چکیده
This paper addresses the problem of equalization space-time codes with transmit diversity. We derive a symbol-by-symbol MAP equalizer/decoder for space-time coded signals over frequency selective channels. We describe a turbo equalization/decoding scheme where the results of the decoding are fed back to the equalizer. Simulation results show an improved equalizer performance due to the feedback.

Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization for Orthogonal STBC over Frequency-Selective MIMO-PLC channels
In this paper we propose a new space diversity scheme for broadband PLC systems using orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission combined with single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). To apply this diversity technique to PLC channels, we first propose a new technique for combining SC-FDE with OSTBCs applicable to all dispersive multipath channels impaired by impulsive...
متن کاملJoint Map Equalization and Channel Estimation Forfrequency - Selective Fast -
This paper presents a maximum a posteriori (MAP) equalizer for bandlimited signals on frequency selective fading channels. A key contribution is the way in which the state-space of the MAP trellis is expanded for the purpose of joint channel estimation and equalization. The fading channel is estimated by coupling minimum mean square error techniques with the expanded MAP trellis. The symbol-by-...
متن کاملMIMO MAP equalization and turbo decoding in interleaved space-time coded systems
Decoding of space–time codes in frequency-selective fading channels is considered. The approach is based on iterative soft-in soft-out equalization and decoding. It is applicable to space–time coded systems that deploy symbol/bit interleavers. We focus on the equalization stage by extending the Ungerboeck equalizer formulation to a multiple-input multiple-output time-variant channel. The result...

In this paper, a cooperative algorithm to improve the orthogonal space-timefrequency block codes (OSTFBC) in frequency selective channels for 2*1, 2*2, 4*1, 4*2 MIMO-OFDM systems, is presented. The algorithm of three node, a source node, a relay node and a destination node is formed, and is implemented in two stages. During the first stage, the destination and the relay antennas receive the sym...
متن کاملPrefiltered space-time M-BCJR equalizer for frequency-selective channels
This paper addresses the problem of soft equalization for space–time-coded transmissions over frequency-selective fading channels. The structure of the space–time code is embedded in the channel impulse response for efficient joint equalization and decoding. The proposed equalization/decoding approach uses a prefilter to concentrate the effective channel power in a small number of taps followed...
