Abstract

We consider the architecture of layered space-time-frequency (STF) coding as a combination of orthogonal precoding and hybrid space-time block coding (STBC) for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless multimedia systems. This approach provides both maximum transmit diversity and spatial multiplexing with moderate complexity. The proposed layered STF coded transmission scheme is practical and efficient over multipath fading channels. In addition, it is possible to obtain maximum frequency diversity gain by means of the orthogonal precoding that enhances the system performance.
