Abstract

We proposed new solutions for distributed realization of the quasi orthogonal space-time block coding (QOSTBC), which is designed for 8 × 1 multiple input–single output (MISO) system. The first proposed solution assumes that base station and relay stations are equipped with 2 antennas, while for the second solution base station is equipped with 4 antennas and relay stations are with one antenna. In both scenarios mobile unit is equipped with single antenna. The proposed solutions are compared with distributed QOSTBC which is used for 4 × 1 MISO system. The simulation results show BER performances improvements provided with the proposed solutions in comparison with distributed QOSTBC designed for 4 × 1 MISO. It was shown that the first proposed scheme provides lower BER values than the second solution. Also, beside ideal channel estimation, influence of real estimation errors on BER performances is considered.
