Abstract

In this paper we present a new family of full-rate space-time block codes for 4 × 2 MIMO, We show how, by combining algebraic and quasi-orthogonal properties of the code, reduced-complexity maximum-likelihood decoding is made possible. In particular, the sphere decoder search can be reduced from a 16-to a 12-dimensional spacE. Within this family, we found a code that outperforms all previously proposed codes for 4 × 2 MIMO.
