Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. According to a method for transmitting diversity, implemented at a transmitting end, space-time precoding is performed for a digital signal to obtain at least two coded signal streams, and then each coded signal stream is transmitted using a respective transmitting and receiving unit (TXRU) equipped with a multi-antenna array, in which an antenna array weight used by the respective TXRU to transmit each coded signal stream is one of two sets of antenna array weights, and at least two TXRUs use two different sets of antenna array weights. The present disclosure also discloses a corresponding transmitter. With the present disclosure, transmitting diversity may be realized in a large-scale antenna system.
