Abstract
In this paper, we consider the design of space-time overlays to upgrade single antenna wireless communication systems to accommodate multiple transmit antennas efficiently. We define the overlay constraint such that the signal transmitted from the first antenna in the upgraded system is the same as that in the single antenna system. The signals transmitted from the remaining antenna's are designed according to space-time coding principles to achieve full spatial diversity in quasi-static flat fading channels. For both BPSK and QPSK modulated systems, we develop an algebraic design framework that exploits the structure of existing single dimensional convolutional codes in designing overlays that achieve full spatial diversity with minimum additional decoding complexity at the receiver.Keywords
