Abstract

Space-time trellis codes have shown to provide a good performance in Rayleigh fading channels. Recently Super-orthogonal space-time trellis codes have shown to outperform these codes, and also provide a systematic design method to maximize diversity and coding gain in quasi-static Rayleigh fading channels. We investigate the performance of these new codes in rapid Rayleigh fading channels and further propose two concatenated versions of these codes. We further investigate the effect of imperfect channel state information on one of the concatenated versions. Some simulation results of the various concatenated schemes in quasi-static and rapid Rayleigh fading channels are presented.
