Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the performance of single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE) for distributed space-time block coded (DSTBC) systems with Non-Regenerative (or amplify-and-forward) relaying over frequency-selective Rician fading channels. Our performance analysis demonstrates that SC-FDE for DSTB is able to achieve a maximum diversity order of Σ i=1 R min(L SRi, L RiD) + R, where R is the number of relays, L SRi and L RiD are the channel memory lengths for source to i th relay (S → R i) link and i th relay to destination (R i → D) link, respectively. Simulation results are provided to corroborate the theoretical analysis.
