Orthogonal space-time block codes design using Jacket transform for MIMO transmission system

Hadamard transform has played an important roles in Jacket transform. In this letter, motivated by Jacket transform we use the Hadamard transform to propose a simple approach for space time block codes (STBC) design. This STBC achieves full rate, full diversity and employs simple decoding. Using the proposed approach, the orthogonal STBC may be designed easily. Especially the performance of the designed orthogonal STBC may be improved significantly.
