A high-rate orthogonal space-time block code

We present a space-time block code from complex orthogonal designs for 5 transmit antennas, which can send 10 information symbols in a block of 15 channel uses and hence have rate 2/3. Simulation results show that this orthogonal space-time block code with rate 2/3 for five transmit antennas can achieve diversity gain over those orthogonal space-time block codes with higher rates for less number of transmit antennas.
