Abstract
Discrete Hartley transform (DHT) based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) outperforms the OFDM based on discrete Fourier transform (DFT) for its intrinsic frequency diversity. However, the space-frequency block coding (SFBC) cannot be applied since the symbols in Hartley domain are coupled. In this paper, by using the properties of DHT and DFT, we propose a DHT based SFBC-OFDM system design with better performance than and similar complexity to the DFT counterpart. Moreover, a low complexity algorithm is derived based on the properties of DHT to get the time domain signals of the DHT based SFBC code words with about halved complexity. Finally, analysis and simulations are provided to validate its feasibility and ability to exploit both the frequency and spatial diversity, as a promising alternative to the DFT counterpart.
