Constructions of Fast-Decodable Distributed Space-Time Codes

  • Conference paper
Coding Theory and Applications

Part of the book series: CIM Series in Mathematical Sciences ((CIMSMS,volume 3))

Abstract

Fast-decodable distributed space-time codes are constructed by adapting the iterative code construction introduced in [6] to the N-relay multiple-input multiple-output channel, leading to the first fast-decodable distributed space-time codes for more than one antenna per user. Explicit constructions are provided alongside with a performance comparison to non-iterated (non-) fast-decodable codes.
