The main idea behind “diversity” is to provide different replicas of the transmitted signal to the receiver. If these different replicas fade independently, it is less probable to have all copies of the transmitted signal in deep fade simultaneously. Therefore, the receiver can reliably decode the transmitted signal using these received signals. This can be done, for example, by picking the signal with the highest SNR or by combining the multiple received signals. As a result, the probabi...

Brief Summary of the project

Definition:

Simulation of a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system using various Space Time Coding (STC) techniques in LabVIEW

MIMO-STC technique is one of the salient features of the WiMAX Mobile standarad, which along with Multiple Access scheme for multiple users, also marks it different from the WiMAX Fixed standard. The above simulation will be done specifically keeping in mind the WiMAX standard.

The success of the simulation will be done after com...
