Analysis and efficient evaluation of the BER of OSTBCs with imperfect channel estimation in arbitrarily correlated fading channels

An analysis of the exact bit error rate (BER) performance of orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBCs) with maximum-likelihood detection in the presence of channel estimation errors is presented. The possibly correlated coefficients of the …

BER analysis of square OSTBCs with LMMSE channel estimation in arbitrarily correlated Rayleigh fading channels

In this paper, we examine the bit error rate (BER) performance of square orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBCs) under arbitrarily correlated Rayleigh fading channels. We consider a mismatched maximum-likelihood receiver that obtains the channel …
