Abstract

See full text

A threaded space-time (TST) architecture in a multiple antenna wireless communication system uses the coded transmission in each layer of a transmission resource array as a space-time code. Each layer of a layer set is active during all available symbol transmission intervals, and each of the transmit antennas are used equally often, such that layers each transmit a symbol using a different antenna during each symbol transmission interval. A receiver is provided for multi-user reception using an iterative, soft-input/soft-output (SISO) multi-user detection algorithm based on minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion, among other methods.
