This paper proposes a combination of space-time block codes (STBC) and superposition modulation (SM). It is aimed to obtain both high reliability and throughput. Conventional STBC can not achieve high throughput by passing the relay. The proposed scheme improves the throughput by using SM. Additionally, it can transmit signals of source and relay at the same time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
