Abstract

We introduce a new trellis coded differential unitary space-time modulation scheme for multiple-antenna wireless systems. In the new scheme, the constellation expansion of unitary space-time signal set is executed using a super unitarity technique so that the number of available unitary matrices is increased but the transmitted symbol alphabet is kept the same. A novel set partitioning strategy is then applied to the expanded matrix set. This scheme avoids the rate-loss problem suffered by traditional code design method. Accordingly, it enables a transmission rate that is no lower than that of the underlying differential unitary space-time modulation. New codes using two transmit antennas are provided. Simulation results show that, besides having lower transmitter and receiver complexity, they also provide improvements in coding gain over existing codes.
