A Single Symbol Maximum-Likehood Decoder for Four Transimit Antenna QOSTBC

Article Preview

Abstract:

This letter proposes a very low-complexity maximum likelihood (ML) detection algorithm for the quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (QOSTBC) with four transmits antennas. The low-complexity single-complex-symbol detection is based on QR decomposition and the expansion of equalization via a diagonal matrix transformation. The proposed strategy enables the QOSTBC to achieve ML performance with significant reduction in computational load for any high-level modulation scheme.
