Abstract

In this paper we consider the utilization of multiple transmitterand receiver antennas for space-time diversity. The optimalSNR scheme, which also provides the best diversity, is outlined.This scheme however involves a reduction in the data rate. Coding schemes are then presentedwhich not only achieve the optimal SNR but also mitigate the reductionof data rate. The proposed schemes are based on the theory of Orthogonal Designsand Amicable Orthogonal Designs.
