Abstract
A method is provided for convolutive coding for the transmission of space-time block codes according to the technique termed Golden Code, in a wireless communication network comprising at least a plurality of transmit antennas. The Golden Code coding is associated with a trellis coded modulation, and the necessary partitioning to the trellis is produced such that, for each partitioning step, a set Γ∞ is multiplied by at least one element β from the set Bk (k>1) of elements of Az such that:Bk={X∈Az and |Det(X)|2=2k},the set Γ∞, termed “infinite Golden Code”, being a principal ideal of the ring Az as defined by the Golden Code technique.
