Abstract Conventional Bell-labs Layered Space Time (BLAST) receivers based on ZF or MMSE algorithm are of great complexity which can not be utilized in the mobile. This paper proposed a transmitter design which combined BLAST and eigenbeamforming with multiple beams pointing to orthogonal directions along the eigenvectors of the channel’s correlation matrix, and with variable rate allocation under certain bit error rate requirement. In this technique, layered space–time pre-processing at the transmitter with a simplified receiver at the mobile station requires only simple signal processing.
