Orthogonal space-frequency block coded (SFBC) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are analysed in broadband wireless channels where adjacent subcarriers do not have the same channel coefficients and the matched filter receiver causes an error floor in bit error rate performance. To avoid this, a low complexity zero forcing (ZF) receiver for the orthogonal schemes with two and three transmit and one receive antennas are proposed.
