Let $S$ be a unital ring, $S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$-derivation, and suppose $f\in S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ has degree $m$ and an invertible leading…

We study fast lattice decodability of space-time block codes for $n$ transmit and receive antennas, written very generally as a linear combination $\sum_{i=1}^{2l} s_i A_i$, where the $s_i$ are real information symbols and the $A_i$ are…

A Space-Time Block Code (STBC) in $K$ symbols (variables) is called $g$-group decodable STBC if its maximum-likelihood decoding metric can be written as a sum of $g$ terms such that each term is a function of a subset of the $K$ variables…
Multiple-input double-output (MIDO) codes are important in the near-future wireless communications, where the portable end-user device is physically small and will typically contain at most two receive antennas. Especially tempting is the 4…

In this paper we propose a new construction method for rate-1 Fast-Group-Decodable (FGD) Space-Time-Block Codes (STBC)s for 2^a transmit antennas. We focus on the case of a=2 and we show that the new FGD rate-1 code has the lowest…

High-rate space-time block codes (STBC with code rate > 1) in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems are able to provide both spatial multiplexing gain and diversity gain, but have high maximum likelihood (ML) decoding complexity. Since…
Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) suffer from a prohibitively high decoding complexity unless the low-complexity decodability property is taken into consideration in the STBC design. For this purpose, several families of STBCs that involve a…

Let F be a field of characteristic p. We define and investigate nonassociative differential extensions of F and of a central simple division algebra over F and give a criterium for these algebras to be division. As special cases, we obtain…
It is well known that Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) obtained from Orthogonal Designs (ODs) are single-symbol-decodable (SSD) and from Quasi-Orthogonal Designs (QODs) are double-symbol decodable. However, there are SSD codes that are not…
A rateless code-i.e., a rate-compatible family of codes-has the property that codewords of the higher rate codes are prefixes of those of the lower rate ones. A perfect family of such codes is one in which each of the codes in the family is…
The problem of designing high rate, full diversity noncoherent space-time block codes (STBCs) with low encoding and decoding complexity is addressed. First, the notion of $g$-group encodable and $g$-group decodable linear STBCs is…
