2. Space-time system model<br />
2.1 Introduction<br />
Before we describe space-time processing, we have to give an appropriate space-time<br />
system model. The bits of information are and then encoded and distributed toto<br />
different antennas in an antenna array by the special space-time encoder. In reception,<br />
a receive antenna array is used, and the information bits are obtained after ST<br />
decoding and demodulation. Fig 1 below describes the transmission scheme.<br />
We first describe, in the first section, the antenna array model, which has to enable<br />
transmission and reception, of several information sources simultaneously. In the<br />
second section we describe the most complicated and crucial part of space-time<br />
system modeling- space-time channel model. In the third part we give received and<br />
transmitted signal models combined with channel and antenna models. In the last<br />
section we examine ways of evaluation of the space time system performance.<br />
