Abstract: Antenna-diversity techniques have been shown to increase the channel capacity in wireless communications to an extent that cannot be matched by any other feasible technique. Recent developments of transmit diversity combined with error-control coding and signal processing techniques have introduced new space-time coding schemes and layered space-time architectures. After a review of the state-of-the art in multiple-antenna transmission, coding, and signal-processing techniques, we present some recent results based on asymptotic analyses.

Bio: EZIO BIGLIERI was born in Aosta (Italy). He studied Electrical Engineering at Politecnico di Torino (Italy), where he received his Dr. Engineering degree in 1967. He has held professorships of Electrical Engineering at the University of Napoli (Italy), at UCLA, and at Politecnico di Torino, where he is currently teaching telecommunications courses. In 1999 he was the President of the IEEE Information Theory Society. Among his honors, in 2000 he received the IEEE Third-Millennium Medal and the IEEE Donald G. Fink Prize Paper Award, and in 2001 the IEEE Communications Society E. H. Armstrong Award. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.
