Abstract: | In this paper, we propose new full diversity unitary space-time codes based on Hamiltonian constellation designs. Our proposed constellations can be used for any number of antennas and for any data rate. For two transmitter antennas, the constellations are constructed from cyclic group codes. For a larger number of transmitter antennas, the design employs the direct sum of 2 times 2 Hamiltonian matrices and roots of unity. We give some examples of proposed constellations, and also show that they outperform known design techniques in the literature |
