Non-coherent distributed space–time coding techniques for two-way wireless relay networks

To overcome the overhead involved with channel estimation, several non-coherent distributed space–time coding (DSTC) strategies for two-way wireless relay networks (TWRNs) using the amplify-and-forward and the decode-and-forward protocol have been recently proposed that do not require channel state information (CSI) at any node to decode the information symbols. In this paper, novel differential DSTC strategies for TWRNs using the two- and...
