Abstract
This article presents a new asymptotically exact lower bound on pairwise error probability of a space-time code as well as an example code that outperforms the comparable orthogonal-design-based space-time (ODST) code. Also contained in the article are an exact expression for pairwise error probability (PEP), signal design guidelines, and some observations relating to the reception of ODST codes.
