LUOTao, HAOJian-Jun · 中国邮电高校学报：英文版 · 2002
Based on the studies of Reed-Solomon codes and orthogonal space-time block codes over Rayleigh fading channel,a theoretical method for estimating performance of Reed-Solomon codes concatenated with orthogonal spacetime block codes is presented in this paper .And an upper bound of the bit error rate is also obtained.It is shown through computer simulations that the signal-to-noise ratio reduces about 15 dB or more after orthogonal space-time block codes are concatenate with Reed-Solomon(15,6)codes over Rayleigh fading channel,when the bit error rate is 10^-4
