Abstract

Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) techniques have been incorporated with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) for broadband wireless communication systems. Bit-Interleaved Coded Multiple Beamforming (BICMB) can achieve both spatial diversity and spatial multiplexing for flat fading MIMO channels. For frequency selective fading MIMO channels, BICMB with OFDM (BICMB-OFDM) can be employed to provide both spatial diversity and multipath diversity, making it an important technique. In our previous work, the subcarrier grouping technique was applied to combat the negative effect of subcarrier correlation. It was also proved that full diversity of BICMB-OFDM with Subcarrier Grouping (BICMB-OFDM-SG) can be achieved within the condition R_cSL<=1, where R_c, S, and L are the code rate, the number of parallel streams at each subcarrier, and the number of channel taps, respectively. The full diversity condition implies that if S increases, R_c may have to decrease to maintain full diversity. As a result, increasing the number of parallel streams may not improve the total transmission rate. In this paper, the precoding technique is employed to overcome the full diversity restriction issue of R_cSL<=1 for BICMB-OFDM-SG. First, the diversity analysis of precoded BICMB-OFDM-SG is carried out. Then, the full-diversity precoding design is developed with the minimum achievable decoding complexity.
