Abstract
An orthogonal sequence based MIMO common feedback method for multicast hybrid automatic-repeat-request (H-ARQ) transmission is presented. The proposed method can obtain more diversity gain proportional to the number of transmit antennas than the conventional on-off keying (OOK) based common feedback method. The ACK/NACK detection performance gain of the proposed scheme over the OOK based method is verified by analysis and computer simulation results.
