Abstract :
We analyze the impact of a time-varying Rayleigh fading channel on the performance of an Alamouti transmit-diversity scheme. We propose several detection strategies for mitigating the effects of a time-varying channel, and derive expressions for their bit-error probability as a function of the channel correlation coefficient ρ
