We prove the non-existence of maximal partial spreads of size 76 in PG(3, 9). Relying on the classification of the minimal blocking sets of size 15 in PG(2, 9) [22], we show that ...
In this paper, a two-hop relay assisted cooperative Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes (OSTBC) transmission scheme is considered for the downlink communication of a cellular system,...
