Abstract

Antenna selection (AS) is herein applied to space-time block coded (STBC) multi-carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) system to improve the downlink system performance while reducing system cost, by choosing a subset of antennas from all available ones. Optimal antenna subset is obtained at the receiver with channel state information (CSI) estimated, and then fed back through a low bit rate, zero-delay and error-free path. The STBC scheme is applied to the system with antennas selected from avail-able. The system structure of the transmitter and the receiver is illustrated. The downlink performance of such a system in frequency selective, spatially independent and correlated fading channels is analyzed. Some representative simulations are taken to validate the analysis.
