Abstract
This paper presents the encoding and decoding algorithms for the various codes and provides simulation results demonstrating their performance in an OFDM-MIMO environment. The system performance is examined in the presence of typical OFDM problems like timing errors, frequency errors and oscillator phase noise. It is shown that using multiple transmit/receive antennas and space-time block coding along with OFDM provides remarkable performance at the expense of almost no extra processing making possible the realization of high bit rates, desirable in a fourth generation system.
