  • Abstract
    Most research on Distributed Space Time Block Coding (D-STBC) assumes perfect synchronization between the relays´ transmissions. In this paper, we propose a Sequential Interference Cancellation (SIC) approach for the detection of D-STBC under Quasi-Synchronization. The numerical simulations, for SIC approach, showed that in just two iterations we can achieve performance close to the D-STBC with perfect synchronization.
