Abstract

A transmitter diversity technique for wireless communications over frequency selective fading channels is presented. The proposed technique utilizes orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to transform a frequency selective fading channel into multiple flat fading subchannels on which space-frequency processing is applied. Simulation results verify that in a slow fading environment the proposed space-frequency OFDM (SF-OFDM) transmitter diversity technique has the same performance as a previously reported space-time OFDM (ST-OFDM) transmitter diversity system but shows better performance in the more difficult fast fading environments. Other implementation advantages of SF-OFDM over the ST-OFDM transmitter diversity technique are also discussed.
