Abstract :
Space-time codes (STC) and a pragmatic approach to STC (P-STC) over block fading channels are analyzed by the generalized transfer function method and designed by a search algorithm based on a new formulation of the pairwise error probability and of the error enumerating function for geometrically uniform STC
