Spatio-temporal polarization signaling for multipath spread-spectrum channels
Eko N. Onggosanusi, B.D. Van Veen, Abu Sayed · 2002
A spread-spectrum spatio-temporal signaling scheme based on electric field polarization is proposed. The information symbol is transmitted via two perpendicular transverse electric field components, each with a unique signature sequence. At the receiver, all three electric field components are measured. It is demonstrated that polarization signaling provides another degree of freedom for increasing spatial diversity to improve the performance of the wireless link.
