Abstract

The problem of multichannel estimation for space-time coded transmissions over frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels is addressed. Under fast fading conditions, receivers employing Kalman filtering and moderate complexity equalization schemes are proposed for both space-time block codes (STBCs) and space-time trellis codes (STTCs). Simulation results of the proposed receivers demonstrate good performance.
