A '''space–time code''' ('''STC''') is a method employed to improve the reliability of data [[transmission (telecommunications)|transmission]] in [[wireless|wireless communication systems]] using multiple transmit [[antenna (radio)|antennas]]. STCs rely on transmitting multiple, [[redundancy (information theory)|redundant]] copies of a data stream to the [[receiver (radio)|receiver]] in the hope that at least some of them may survive the [[transmission medium|physical path]] between transmission and reception in a good enough state to allow reliable decoding.
