This letter proposes a very low-complexity maximum likelihood (ML) detection algorithm for the quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (QOSTBC) with four transmits antennas. The low-complexity single-complex-symbol detection is based on QR decomposition and the expansion of equalization via a diagonal matrix transformation. The proposed strategy enables the QOSTBC to achieve ML performance with significant reduction in computational load for any high-level modulation scheme.

In this paper, based on QR decomposition, an improved detection algorithm for quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (QOSTBC) using square QAM constellation is presented. In the proposed method, by executing single complex symbol twi-detection for each block and selecting the optimal result, the BER performance is much better than that of the linear receivers. Compared with conventional maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding, though the bit error rates (BER) performance is with a slight loss, the improved detection algorithm reduces the decoding complexity significantly. The derivation and simulation results of the proposed algorithm are presented.

In this paper, a quasi-orthogonal space time block coding (QO-STBC) scheme with maximum likelihood (ML) decoding via simple linear and single-complex-symbol detection is proposed. We present a fast and simple linear decode processing by embedding a transformed signal space. The method benefits from the reduced maximum likelihood decoding complexity via the pre-interleaving to QO-STBC. We also proposed codes with 3/4 of the full transmission rate for the specific cases of 8 transmit antennas. Finally, the numerical results show the proficiency of our design procedure, demonstrating that significant improvements in BER are achievable when the rate or receive antennas increases.

Trellis coded (TCM) modulation can obtain the coding gain without increase the transmission power and the bandwidth but it can not obtain diversity gain, and space-time block code (STBC) can provide diversity gain in a simple encoding and decoding way, though its coding gain is not very satisfied. This article will achieve a STBC-class networking trellis coded modulation scheme based on FPGA to further study the performance of the concatenated code.
