This lecture explores Alamouti's Space Time Code and multiple antenna techniques in wireless communications. Learn about transmitter antenna diversity configurations including One TX with two RX antennas using Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC), Two TX with one RX antenna using Maximum Ratio Transmission (MRT)/Beamforming, and MISO systems with transmit Channel State Information (CSI). Examine the channel capacity of SIMO and MISO channels, understand space-time coding principles, and discover how Alamouti Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) works with MRC. The lecture also covers MIMO systems and Alamouti STBC implementation in various antenna configurations.
