Full-space diversity and full-rate distributed space–time block codes for amplify-and-forward relaying networks

In this study, the authors propose a full-rate distributed space–time block code (D-STBC) that can operate on an arbitrary number of available relaying nodes which generates minimal network overhead when incorporating additional relaying nodes into transmission stream. The proposed D-STBC also does...
