MIMO
N minN t , N r
• Codewords X i are n L
block length
matrices
Space-time coding (2)
• Increases redundancy over space and time, as each antenna
transmits a differently encoded fully redundant version of the
same signal.
• Unitary and differential space-time coding has been proposed , which does
not require CSI [Unitary space-time modulation for multiple-antenna
communications in Rayleigh flat fading,” IEEE Trans. Info. Theory,
• vol. 46, no. 2, Mar. 2000, pp. 543–64].
Space-Time Processing (1)
• The optimal decoding complexity is exponential
in the number of antennas.
• Solving is impractical and exhaustive for high transmission rates, and the
complexity grows exponentially with the number of antennas
A solution: SD
SD solves this problem by searching for the closest point among all lattice
points y that lie inside a sphere centered around the received vector
and of radius d
• The algorithm runs recursively until all lattice points inside the sphere are
found

Diversity versus multiplexing
(a fundamental tradeoff in multiple
antenna channels)
• Multiple antennas can be used to increase diversity
to combat channel fading.
• There are also schemes, which switch between the two modes, depending on the
instantaneous channel condition
• Maximizing one type of gain may not necessarily maximize the other. For
example, the coding structure from the orthogonal designs [V. Tarokh et al,
“Space-time block code from orthogonal designs,” IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory,
vol. 45, pp. 1456–67, July 1999.], while achieving
• the full diversity gain, reduces the achievable spatial multiplexing gain .
• Each of the two design goals addresses only one aspect of the problem, a
concrete design depends on the application
Diversity versus multiplexing (6)
no more diversity gain can be extracted by coding over block lengths greater
than n m 1 than using a block length equal to n m 1

MIMO+multicarrier modulation
(MIMO-OFDM)
MIMO OFDM (1)
• OFDM is chosen over a single-carrier solution
due to :
• lower complexity of equalizers for high delay
spread channels or high data rates;
• Delay diversity was the first transmit diversity approach for flat-
fading MIMO channels. Multiple transmit antennas send
delayed copies of same signal, and
MLSE or DFE is used at the receiver to estimate the transmitted
sequence.

• B. Closed-Loop MIMO-OFDM
• A closed-loop MIMO transmitter has knowledge of the channel,
allowing it to perform an optimal form of pre-compensation
