The performance of a Space-Time Shift Keying (STSK) scheme was shown to degrade in frequency-selective fading channels. Hence, we propose Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) combined with STSK for frequency-selective broadband channels. Furthermore, we consider both an uncoded and a near-capacity coded scenario. Our results show that a STSK system combined with OFDM is capable of overcoming the impairments of dispersive channels, hence approaching the same performance as in a flat- fading channel.

Abstract

The performance of a Space-Time Shift Keying (STSK) scheme was shown to degrade in frequency-selective fading channels. Hence, we propose Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) combined with STSK for frequency-selective broadband channels. Furthermore, we consider both an uncoded and a near-capacity coded scenario. Our results show that a STSK system combined with OFDM is capable of overcoming the impairments of dispersive channels, hence approaching the same performance as in a flat- fading channel.
