ABSTRACT
Fading is one of the major impairments of wireless channels, and it has traditionally been seen as an obstacle to reliable data transmission. Considerable eorts have been devoted to combat fading and to send data more reliably over wireless channels. One of the key methods to mitigate fading is to implement diversity techniques in wireless communication systems. ere are several dierent ways to achieve the diversity: frequency diversity [1], time diversity [2], and spatial diversity [3-6].
