Abstract
In this paper, linear precoding for non-orthogonal space time block codes (STBC) is investigated. A theoretical model of spatial correlation with a Laplacian distribution of AOA is first derived. The design of the precoder is based on the choice of the codeword error matrix according to a criterion. We propose here a new criterion based on the system outage probability to select the suitable codeword error matrix allowing to move rapidly from one diversity order to the next. Codeword selection points out the importance of the determinant and the eigenvalues of the error matrices. The proposed method is applied to the non-orthogonal optimal STBC : 2 times 2 golden code and 4 times 4 perfect code.
