Abstract: Analysis of full-rate linear and space-time block code for 3X3 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems under a Rayleigh flat-fading environment has been carried out. The design targets specifically use a Linear Minimum Mean-square Error (MMSE) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) receivers which minimizes the average Symbol error rate (SER) for a QPSK transmitted signal. The optimization problem is solved by minimizing a lower bound of the SER. The performance of MIMO systems has been studied by changing the number of transmitters and receivers. A comparison has been made between MMSE and ML receivers in terms SER as a function of SNR. The simulation results show that the higher MIMO system exhibits a SNR~4 dB improvement for ML receiver in comparison to linear MMSE receiver.
