Abstract

In a conventional MIMO-OFDM system, it is well known that cyclic delay diversity (CDD) and space-time block coding (STBC) can increase data rate, capacity and bit error rate (BER) performance. However, a recent trend of research on the MIMO-OFDM system pays more attention to simplified implementation of receiver structure. In this paper, we propose differential STBC MIMO-OFDM system with CDD. This structure can provide a very close performance to that of the conventional diversity scheme with maximum likelihood (ML) detection without channel estimation block while the receiver structure is highly simplified. BER (bit error rate) performance of the proposed system is simulated for an AWGN channel by theoretical and simulated approaches. The results of this paper can be applicable to the 4G mobile multimedia communication systems.
