Diversity and Multiplexing: A Fundamental Tradeoff in Multiple Antenna Channels

by Lizhong Zheng, David N. C. Tse - IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory , 2002
"... Multiple antennas can be used for increasing the amount of diversity or the number of degrees of freedom in wireless communication systems. In this paper, we propose the point of view that both types of gains can be simultaneously obtained for a given multiple antenna channel, but there is a fund ..."

User Cooperation Diversity -- Part I: System Description

by Andrew Sendonaris, Elza Erkip, Behnaam Aazhang - IEEE TRANS. COMMUN , 1998
"... Mobile users' data rate and quality of service are limited by the fact that, within the duration of any given call, they experience severe variations in signal attenuation, thereby necessitating the use of some type of diversity. In this two-part paper, we propose a new form of spatial diver ..."

Cooperative diversity in wireless networks: efficient protocols and outage behavior

by J. Nicholas Laneman, David N. C. Tse, Gregory W. Wornell - IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY , 2004
"... We develop and analyze low-complexity cooperative diversity protocols that combat fading induced by multipath propagation in wireless networks. The underlying techniques exploit space diversity available through cooperating terminals’ relaying signals for one another. We outline several strategies ..."

Source-channel diversity for parallel channels

by J. Nicholas Laneman, Emin Martinian, Gregory W. Wornell, John G. Apostolopoulos - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY , 2005
"... We consider transmitting a source across a pair of independent, nonergodic channels with random states (e.g., slow-fading channels) so as to minimize the average distortion. The general problem is unsolved. Hence, we focus on comparing two commonly used source and channel encoding systems which corr ..."

correspond to exploiting diversity either at the physical layer through parallel channel coding or at the application layer through multiple description (MD) source coding. For on–off channel models, source coding diversity offers better performance. For channels with a continuous range of reception quality

Opportunistic Beamforming Using Dumb Antennas

by Pramod Viswanath, David Tse, Rajiv Laroia - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory , 2002
"... Multiuser diversity is a form of diversity inherent in a wireless network, provided by independent time-varying channels across the different users. The diversity benefit is exploited by tracking the channel fluctuations of the users and scheduling transmissions to users when their instantaneous cha ..."

Space-time codes for high data rate wireless communication: Performance criterion and code construction

by Vahid Tarokh, Nambi Seshadri, A. R. Calderbank - IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY , 1998
"... We consider the design of channel codes for improving the data rate and/or the reliability of communications over fading channels using multiple transmit antennas. Data is encoded by a channel code and the encoded data is split into n streams that are simultaneously transmitted using n transmit ant ..."

constructed from pairs of distinct code sequences. The minimum rank among these matrices quantifies the diversity gain, while the minimum determinant of these matrices quantifies the coding gain. The results are then extended to fast fading channels. The design criteria are used to design trellis codes

A simple cooperative diversity method based on network path selection

"... Cooperative diversity has been recently proposed as a way to form virtual antenna arrays that provide dramatic gains in slow fading wireless environments. However, most of the proposed solutions require distributed space–time coding algorithms, the careful design of which is left for future investi ..."

Space-time block codes from orthogonal designs

by Vahid Tarokh, Hamid Jafarkhani, A. R. Calderbank - IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory , 1999

Fading relay channels: Performance limits and space-time signal design

by Rohit U. Nabar, Helmut Bölcskei, Felix W. Kneubühler - IEEE J. SELECT. AREAS COMMUN , 2004
