In this correspondence, the distributed orthogonal space-timeblockcodes (DOSTBCs), which achieve the single-symbol maximum likelihood (ML) decodability and full diversity order, are first considered. However, systematic construction of the DOSTBCs is very hard, since the noise covariance matrix is not diagonal in general. Thus, some special DOSTBCs, which have diagonal noise covariance matrices at the destination terminal, are investigated. These codes are referred to as the row-monomial DOSTBCs. An upper bound of the data-rate of the row-monomial DOSTBC is derived and it is approximately twice higher than that of the repetition-based cooperative strategy. Furthermore, systematic construction methods of the row-monomial DOSTBCs achieving the upper bound of the data-rate are developed when the number of relays and/or the number of information-bearing symbols are even.

In conventional two-tiered Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), sensors in each cluster transmit observed data to a fusion center via an intermediate supernode. This structure is vulnerable to supernode failure. A double supernode system model with a new coding scheme is proposed to monitor a binary data source. A distributed Joint Source Channel Code (D-JSCC) is proposed for sensors inside a cluster that provides two advantages of low complexity transmitters and scalability to a large number of sensors. In order to setup a robust communication channel from sensors to the data fusion center, distributedspace-timeblock Coding (D-STBC) is employed at two supernodes prior to relaying that results in additional diversity gain. DeModulate and Forward (DMF) relaying mode is chosen to enable packet reformatting at the supernodes, which is not possible in widely used Amplify and Forward (AF) mode. The optimum power allocation for the two-hop multiple DMF relaying is calculated to minimize the system Bit Error Rate (BER). An upper bound is derived for the system end-to-end BER by analyzing a basic decoder operation over the system model. The simulation results validate this upper bound and also demonstrate considerable improvement in the system BER for the proposed coding scheme.

In this article, the first general constructions of fast-decodable, more specifically (conditionally) g-group decodable, space-timeblockcodes for the nonorthogonal amplify and forward (NAF) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relay channel under the half-duplex constraint are proposed. In this scenario, the source and the intermediate relays used for data amplification are allowed to employ multiple antennas for data transmission and reception. The worst-case decoding complexity of the obtained codes is reduced by up to 75%. In addition to being fast-decodable, the proposed codes achieve full-diversity and have nonvanishing determinants, which has been shown to be useful for achieving the optimal diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of the NAF channel. Furthermore, it is shown that the same techniques as in the cooperative scenario can be utilized to achieve fast-decodability for K-user MIMO multiple-access channel (MAC) space-timeblockcodes. The resulting codes in addition exhibit the conditional nonvanishing determinant property which, for its part, has been shown to be useful for achieving the optimal MAC-DMT.

Cooperative transmission can be seen as a "virtual'' MIMO system, where the multiple transmit antennas are in fact implemented distributed by the antennas both at the source and the relay terminal. Depending on the system design, diversity/multiplexing gains are achievable. This design involves the definition of the type of retransmission (incremental redundancy, repetition coding), the design of the distributedspace-timecodes, the error correcting scheme, the operation of the relay (decode & forward or amplify & forward) and the number of antennas at each terminal. Proposed schemes are evaluated in different conditions in combination with forward error correcting codes (FEC), both for linear and near-optimum (sphere decoder) receivers, for its possible implementation in downlink high speed packet services of cellular networks. Results show the benefits of coded cooperation over direct transmission in terms of increased throughput. It is shown that multiplexing gains are observed even if the mobile station features a single antenna, provided that cell wide reuse of the relay radio resource is possible.
