Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel application of Redundant Residue Number System (RRNS) codes to Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) design. Based on the so-called “Direct Mapping” and “Indirect Mapping” schemes, the link between residues and complex signal constellations is optimized. We derive upper bounds on the codeword error probability of RRNS–STBC and characterize its achievable diversity gain assuming maximum likelihood decoding (MLD). The knowledge of apriori probabilities of residues is utilized to implement a probability based Distance-Aware Direct Mapping scheme. Using simulation results, we demonstrate that the Distance-Aware Direct Mapping scheme provides performance gain, relative to a traditional direct mapping scheme, that increases with decreasing code rate.
