Abstract :
The performance of the combined beamforming of space-time block coding according to the number of antenna array groups has been analysed. CB_STBC_single array and CB_STBC_double array were compared under the condition of DOA and SNR. CB_STBC_double array is shown to have a stable performance independent of DOA and angular spread.
