Abstract Details

2018, Master of Science (MS), Ohio University, Electrical Engineering (Engineering and Technology).
Building a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) channel to face real-world fading and noise efficiently needs good diversity and coding techniques. Alamouti coding provided a great launch pad to open up this area and made the MIMO technology affordable in day-to-day mobile and wireless communications. In this thesis, testing the MIMO system on different fading channels provided a great insight into how direct and scattering components affect the Bit Error Rate performance of the MIMO system. A 4x4 MIMO system is tested using a full code rate codeword on different fading channels by varying Rician factor (K). The thesis concluded that the 4x4 MIMO with referred codeword is performing better than 2x2 Alamouti STBC when Rician Factor k>8dB in indoor channels. In this thesis, by testing the referred 4x4 MIMO with other relative codewords, the importance of complex symbols handling and code rate is shown. The results help demonstrate the coding gain and spectral efficiency of test 4x4 MIMO. As people are interested in cloud computing and store more information online, hiking speed from Mobile devices to Base station also becomes essential.
