Beamformg s a well kow complemetary tecque commucato system by provdes array ga. MIMO systems wc explot beamformg ad space-tme block codg (BC) ave recetly attracted eormous terest due to ts potetal to eace performace ad crease te capacty of moble commucato system. arok frstly proposed a BC sceme usg a ortogoal code matrx, so called ortogoal BC (O-BC) []. Later, quas-ortogoal BC (QO-BC) as bee proposed [-5], wc provdes full code rate te trasmt atea case, at te expese of a loss dversty. e dea of combg BC ad beamformg s proposed order to maxmze dversty order as well as beamformg ga [6]. ce array ga wll strogly affect system detecto performace, [7] aoter sceme wc use same umber of ateas but separate tem to dfferet arrays s proposed. e ew sceme s sow to ave a stable performace depedet of DOA ad agular spread. I [8],[9], ts dea s exteded to four trasmtter case. Ad t also could be exteded to MIMO systems. owever, f we crease te umber of trasmtters, ts ca crease te dversty ga, but at te same tme ts may also crease te terferece from te egborg sgals. g terferece from te egborg sgals ot oly curs g decodg complexty but also may reduce te performace. I order to solve ts problem, we propose a ovel sceme, wc are called selectve recevg atea structure. s ca mprove te performace for MIMO systems wc combe beamformg ad BC. I ts paper, we use a four trasmtter case as a example. wo ateas are used at te recevg ed, were te trasmtted sgals are grouped ad amed at eac atea usg beamformer at te trasmtter. e receved sgal at eac atea s grouped te way to elmate te terferece from te sgals te oter group. Because of te reduced terferece, ot oly te processg complexty at te decoder ca be reduced but also te performace ca be gly mproved. I te followg sectos we explore more detal te relatve merts of te proposed recever sceme to usg te BC combg beamformg sceme.
