This paper introduces a new packet combining technique with integrated minimum mean square error (MMSE) turbo equalization for single carrier broadband multi-antenna coded transmission. The proposed scheme considers each trans- mission as an additional set of virtual receive antennas and combines multiple transmissions in the frequency domain with very low computational complexity. Block error rate (BLER) curves, obtained via computer simulations, indicate that the technique has near optimal performance.
