PREREQUISITE: Knowledge on Communication theory, Digital communication and Wireless
communication

OBJECTIVES:
• To learn the key aspects of MIMO communication
• To teach the importance of improving capacity of wireless channel using MIMO
• To teach the characteristic of wireless channel
• To teach techniques for channel improvements using space-time block and Trellis codes.
• To understand the UWB communication

UNIT I INTRODUCTION TO MIMO 9
MIMO systems–array Gain, diversity gain, data pipes, spatial MUX, MIMO system model .MIMO system
capacity–channel known at the TX, channel unknown to the TX–capacity of deterministic channels, random
channels and frequency selective channels.

UNIT II RADIOWAVE PROPAGATION 9
Radio wave propagation– macroscopic fading- free space and outdoor, small scale fading-fading
measurements – direct pulse measurements, spread spectrum- correlation channel sounding –frequency
domain channel sounding, antenna diversity–diversity combining methods.

UNIT III SPACE TIME BLOCK CODES 9
Delay diversity scheme, Alamouti space timecode– maximum likelihood decoding – maximum ratio
combining. Transmit diversity-space time block codes forreal signal constellation and complex signal
constellation- decoding of STBC.

UNIT IV SPACE TIME TRELLIS CODES 9
Space time coded systems, space time code word design criteria ,design of space time Trellis code on slow
fading channels, design of STT Confast fading channels, performance analysis in slow and fast fading
channels, effect of imperfect channel estimation and antenna correlation on performance, comparison of
STBC &STTC.

UNIT V INTRODUCTION TO UWB 9
