Abstract

The invention lies within the field of wireless communications systems with several transmitting antennas, corresponding to MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) systems or to MISO (Multiple Input Single Output) systems. According to the invention, the symbols to be transmitted are pre-encoded with a particular linear pre-encoding matrix then coded according to space-time block coding so as to benefit to the full from temporal and spatial diversities allowing at reception for particularly easy and efficient linear decoding.
