Abstract

In this paper, we propose new joint serially concatenated communication structures constructed from convolutional product codes and space time codes. The proposed structures are suitable for parallel processing operations and they have very low decoding latencies compared to their classical counterparts. Use of multi-antennas increases the spectral efficiency of the joint structures.
