Wireless Personal Communications Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

In this letter, taking into account realistic propagation environments in the presence of double scattering, we analyze the outage probability of orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) for an arbitrary finite number of transmit and receive antennas. Closed-form expressions for the outage probability of OSTBC over Rayleigh-fading multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels with double scattering are presented. Finally we give some numerical results to verify our analysis.
