Widely linear equalization for space-time block-coded transmission over fading ISI channels
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We develop receivers for transmission with space-time block codes (STBCs) over fading intersymbol interference (ISI) channels. The focus lies on Alamouti's STBC, but the results may be generalized to related codes. It turns out that a straightforward combination of conventional equalizers and a space-time block decoder is only possible if at least as many receive antennas as transmit antennas are employed, but not for the practically interesting case of pure transmit diversity. This restriction is circumvented by our approach. Equalizers with widely linear (WL) processing are designed, exploiting the structure of Alamouti's STBC, which is shown to produce an improper (rotationally variant) transmit signal. The presented receivers are especially well suited for high-level modulated signals, which are used in third-generation time-division multiple access (TDMA) mobile communications standards such as EDGE (enhanced data rates for GSM evolution). In contrast to block-based STBCs which have recently been proposed for ISI channels, our approach of combining a symbol-based STBC and equalization can be easily accommodated to channels with time-variant behaviour inside a transmission burst. Furthermore, for our scheme, the present burst structure of the EDGE system can be retained.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
