Abstract:For enhancing the BER performance of a wireless network by reducing the effects of fading, transmit diversity is an effective way [1]. Due to size, hardware and cost constraints, majority of the wireless devices (i.e. mobile handsets, etc) are limited to only one antenna. Co-operative communication can be used and incorporated to achieve the transmit diversity by utilizing single antenna wireless devices to share their antennas during session. Such an arrangement creates a virtual MIMO (multiple-input and mult… Show more
