Thus, in this paper, an algorithm is proposed for transmission in simulcast system, where partial channel state information (CSI) is needed. Based on measured multipath channel, performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated. According to simulation results, the proposed algorithm outperforms the direction summation (DS) scheme and multipath antenna diversity (MAD) algorithm, with 2~4 dB advantage over the latters. Especially in line of sight (LOS) scenario, the advantage is more obvious. Besides, the proposed algorithm brings more gain with increasing number of transmit antennas without additional power. Finally, robustness of the proposed algorithm is examined with imperfect CSI.展开更多
