SPACE TIME CODING FOR TRELLIS CODED MODULATION IN ADDITIVE WHITE GAUSSIAN CHANNELS

Abstract

In this study, Trellis Coded Modulation (TCM) technique is combined with Space Time Codes (STC) and error performance is investigated in Additive White Gaussian (AWGN) channels. For this purpose a different receiver structure is proposed and mathematical model is given.Investigated system's error performance curves are given for different signal-to-noise ratios.
