Effects of Synchronization Error on Space Time Block Codes Equipped with FSK Waveforms

Abstract

Space-time Coding (STC) for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless communication systems is an effective technique for providing robust wireless link performance in telemetry systems. This paper investigates the degradation in system performance when synchronization errors between the transmitter and receiver are present. Specifically, expressions that quantify the increase in symbol-error-rate as a function of symbol synchronization error are derived for a two-transmit and single receive antenna MISO system using binary frequency shift keying waveforms. These results are then extended to the MIMO case. the analytic results are verified with simulation results that show close agreement between the theoretical expressions and Monte Carlo simulation runs. © International Foundation for Telemetering, 2009.
