Multiple Input and Multiple Output communication system(MIMO) architecture is the current trends in the wireless
communication technology. Unlike the single input single output system(SISO), MIMO has advantage of providing
higher capacity, bit rate and reliability. Spatial diversity, spatial multiplexing and beam forming are the three
different classes of the MIMO system architecture.
This paper present a analysis carried out for OFDM based wireless communication architecture using space time
block code (STBC) at the transmitter side. Analysis is carried out to see the effect of delay spread and fading. An
expression is designed and developed for computing the bit error rate with STBC and timing error. Signal to noise
ratio calculation is also carried out.
