Summary :

In this letter, we address the performance evaluation of a space-time block coded (STBC) orthogonal frequency and code division multiplexing (OFCDM) system encountered with time-variant channels. For the performance evaluation, the average bit error rate (BER) impairment due to imperfect channel information is investigated taking into account the effect of time-varying channels. Derived results show that the loss of orthogonality due to the time variation of the channel incurs the channel estimation error, which causes performance degradation.
