Abstract :
A novel upper bound is proposed using correct probability for evaluation of block-error rate of space-time codes at low signal-to-noise ratio. Analytical and numerical results show that, at low SNR, the proposed bound is tighter and more accurate than that of the Union Bound using the pair-wise error probability
