Abstract
A system and related methods for introducing intra-channel spatial diversity within a multi-carrier wideband communication channel is presented. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, developed more fully below, a method is presented comprising receiving information for transmission to a receiver, and generating a plurality of sub-carriers to redundantly transmit the information to a user over a multi-carrier wireless communication channel, wherein each of the sub-carriers is dynamically modified by a set of complex weights to ensure that each of the sub-carriers of the wireless communication channel propagates along a different physical path to the receiver.
