Summary :

This letter describes four-branch open-loop transmit diversity schemes that are based on group-coherent codes using space-time block codes (STBC-GCC), for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing and code-division multiplexing (OFDM-CDM) systems. Open-loop STBC-GCC is designed for transmitting control data by two-dimensional spreading, which is achieved by applying two distinct Walsh-Hadamard (WH) codes within the same mother-code group to two different groups of transmit antennas. The simulation results demonstrated that open-loop STBC-GCC applied to two-dimensional spreading provides space diversity gains and frequency diversity gains. It can therefore be concluded that open-loop STBC-GCC is suitable for transmitting common control data or broadcast data via two-dimensional spreading OFDM-CDM.
