A Novel Transmit Diversity Technique for MIMO System

Article Preview

Abstract:

The antenna diversity based on log-likelihood ratio (LLR) is better than that based on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in bit error rate performance for MIMO systems. Thus in this paper, we present a novel transmit antenna selection scheme based on bit log-likelihood ratio when the Alamouti code is employed .Then the BER expressions of application based on Bit-LLR (BLLR) for MPSK and MQAM modulation with Gray code are derived. The simulation results show that the new scheme based on BLLR is superior to SNR. With the increase of the transmit antennas, the performance of system is improved significantly. Furthermore, the diversity order is the same as that of the full complexity systems.
