Abstract
In this letter, we propose a transmit antenna shuffling scheme for quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes (QO-STBCs). We show that by adaptively mapping the space-time sequences of the QO-STBC to the appropriate transmit antennas depending on the channel condition, the proposed scheme can improve its transmit diversity with limited feedback information. The performance of the scheme with various numbers of shuffling patterns is analyzed. The bit error probability of the schemes is evaluated by simulations. It is demonstrated that with the linear zero-forcing (ZF) and the minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receivers, the closed-loop QO-STBC using two feedback bits can achieve almost the same performance as the ideal 4-path diversity and it is about 4-5 dB better than the open loop schemes
