Abstract

In this correspondence, we propose some new designs of 2×2 unitary space-time codes of sizes 6, 32, 48, 64 with best-known diversity products (or product distances) by partially using sphere packing theory. In particular, we present an optimal 2×2 unitary space-time code of size 6 in the sense that it reaches the maximal possible diversity product for 2×2 unitary space-time codes of size 6. The construction and the optimality of the code of size 6 provide the precise value of the maximal diversity product of a 2×2 unitary space-time code of size 6.
