Abstract
Figure 23.1 shows the principle block diagram of a MIMO transmitter with space-time encoding. The incoming bit sequence b(n) is fed into the QAM mapper, which periodically maps \(\kappa \) consecutive bits to a QAM symbol \(c(k')\), constituting a \(2^{\kappa }\)-ary QAM. b(n) may contain redundancy bits from a forward error correction encoder, Friedrichs (Error Control Coding.
