Reduced-complexity transmit/receive-diversity systems

Abstract
We consider wireless systems with transmit and receive diversity. For reduction of complexity, we propose to use hybrid selection/maximal ratio transmission at one link end, choosing L out of N antennas. We analyze the performance of such systems, giving analytical bounds and comparing them to computer simulations. Outage probability, symbol error probability, and capacity are shown. We demonstrate that in typical cases, a small number of used antennas L is sufficient to achieve considerable performance gains Author(s) Molisch, A.F.
