Antenna Selection and Ordering for EST-Based Modulation With Cyclic Delay Diversity

In this paper, antenna selection and ordering for energy-spreading transform (EST)-based modulation employing multiple transmit antennas for cyclic delay diversity (CDD) is considered. First, we analyze the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) of the iterative receiver based on a soft decision that has been designed for EST-based modulation. Then, an antenna-selection and ordering criterion that maximizes the SINR of the soft-decision receiver is proposed.
