The quality of experience (QoE) of IP-packetized streaming video is affected by both packet loss and packet delay variations. When the network delivering the video content contains a wireless link, occasional deep fades give rise to bursts of packet …
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 …
A compact wearable antenna system, completely made out of textile materials for integration into protective garments, is proposed. The system implements combined pattern and polarization diversity to improve the quality of the communication link. The …
In this contribution, we provide an exact bit error rate (BER) analysis of orthogonal space-time block codes over arbitrarily distributed (possibly correlated) block fading channels with imperfect channel estimation. The transmitted symbols belong to …
In this contribution, we examine the effect of imperfect channel estimation on the bit error rate (BER) performance of square orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBCs). The propagation channels from the N-t transmit antennas to each of the N-r …
