Abstract: A user allocating apparatus and method in a multiple antenna mobile communication system supporting multi-user diversity is provided. Each user calculates effective Signal-to-Interference Noise Ratios (SINRs) and bit loading over every possible detection order and selects a detection order maximizing the number of channels with a minimum product of the minimum symbol distance of a modulation scheme and an effective SINR, thereby minimizing an average error probability. A base station receives detection orders from users and selects a user with a maximum detection order value. The base station then transmits data to the selected user using modulation schemes determined by the user for the transmit antennas.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for selecting a Space-Time Coding (STC) scheme in a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system are provided. Upon generation of a data transmission event, a transmitter receives a feedback signal, encodes transmission data using an STC scheme indicated by the feedback signal, and transmits the code symbols to a receiver, and the receiver measures interference factors of available STC schemes using the received code symbols, selects an STC scheme with a smaller interference factor, and notifies the transmitter of the selected STC scheme by a feedback signal.
