Abstract

A Multi-Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) selective Hybrid Automatic-Repeat-reQuest (HARQ) scheme for improving the throughput efficiency of Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems is proposed in this paper. According to different feedback information from the receiver, the proposed HARQ scheme employs two strategies, referred to as retransmission frame selection and space diversity. These two strategies decrease the successive frame errors upon retransmission. Theoretic analysis and computer simulation results show that this HARQ scheme achieves higher throughput than the existing HARQ schemes even in poor conditions of low signal-to-noise ratio.
