TURBO-TCM AND TRANSMIT ANTENNA DIVERSITY IN MULTIPATH FADING CHANNELS J.P. Cances, V. Meghdadi ENSIL, University of Limoges cances(meghdadi)-ensil.unilim.fr ABSTRACT We consider turbo-trellis-coded transmission over fading MIMO channels with transmit diversity using space-time block codes. We describe the concatenation of Turbo-TCM with a space-time block code and show that, in addition to the tra
