Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are at the forefront of potential technological advancements. Carbon-based materials have been extensively studied since synthesizing graphene, which revealed properties of great interest for novel applications across diverse scientific and technological domains. New carbon allotropes continue to be explored theoretically, with several successful synthesis processes for carbon-based materials recently achieved.

In this paper, we propose a two-hop orthogonal frequency division multiplexing and code-division multiple-access (OFDM-CDMA) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relay system, which combines, both at the source and relay nodes, a tensor space-time-frequency (TSTF) coding with a multiple symbol matrices Kronecker product (MSMKron), called TSTF-MSMKron coding, aiming to increase the diversity gain. It is first established that the signals received at the relay and the destination satisfy generalized Tucker models whose core tensors are the coding tensors.
