Abstract

The paper describes the architecture of the Stanford University (SU) TDMA standalone testbed. The testbed was developed to evaluate space-time processing (STP) algorithms for diversity, co-channel interference (CCI) and intersymbol interference (ISI) mitigation, array gain and space-time coding. It operates in both uplink and downlink modes and uses a hybrid (combining a real and simulated) channel environment. A description of transmit and receive schemes implemented on the testbed is presented
