Space-Time Block Code Spatial Modulation

The document proposes a new MIMO transmission scheme called space-time block coded spatial modulation (STBC-SM) that combines spatial modulation and space-time blocking coding to leverage the benefits of both while avoiding their drawbacks. STBC-SM encodes information in the spatial (antenna), time, and symbol domains. A general technique is presented to design STBC-SM for any number of transmit antennas. STBC-SM provides high spectral efficiency and exploits transmit diversity through its diversity and coding gains, outperforming schemes like spatial modulation and V-BLAST. It also has lower decoding complexity than existing schemes.

ABSTRACT

A novel multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)

transmission scheme , called space-time block coded spatial modulation (STBC-SM) ,is proposed. It combines spatial modulation(SM) and space-time blocking coding(STBC) to take advantage of the benefits of both while avoiding their drawbacks.

In the STBCSM scheme , the transmitted information

symbols are expanded not only to the space and time domains but also to the spatial (antenna) domain which corresponds to the on/off status of the transmit antennas available at the space domain , and therefore both core STBC and antenna indices carry information. A general technique is presented for the design of the STBC-SM scheme for any number of transmits antennas.

Besides the high spectral efficiency advantage

provided by the antenna domain, the proposed scheme is also optimized by deriving its diversity and coding gains to exploit the diversity advantage of STBC.
A low-complexity maximum likelihood (ML) decoder

is given for the new scheme which profits from the orthogonality of the core STBC. The performance advantage of the STBC-SM over simple SM and over VBLAST are shown by simulation results for various spectral efficiencies and are supported by the derivation of a closed form expression for the union bound on the bit error probability.

EXISTING SYSTEM
In V-BLAST systems , a high level of inter-channel

interference (ICI) occurs at the receiver since all antennas transmit their own data streams at the same time. This further increases the complexity of an optimal decoder exponentially, While low-complexity suboptimum linear decoders , such as the minimum mean square error (MMSE) decoder , degrade the error performance of the system significantly.

DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM

ML decoding complexity grows exponentially with the

constellation size Difficult implementation Expensive for future wireless communication system

PROPOSED SYSTEM
We have introduced a MIMO transmission scheme ,

called STBC-SM , as an alternative to existing techniques such as SM and VBLAST. The proposed new transmission scheme employs both APM techniques and antenna in dices to convey information and exploits the transmit diversity potential of MIMO channels.

A general technique has been presented for the

construction of the STBC-SM scheme for any number of transit antennas in which the STBC-SM system was optimized by deriving its diversity and coding gains to reach optimum performance.

ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM

Synchronization of all transmit antennas is not

required Significant improvements in BER performance Useful for high-rate , low complexity , emerging wireless communication systems such as WiMAX. Spectral efficiency
