Construction-A Full-Diversity Lattices Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • 2016 IEEE. Lattices from Construction A and non-binary codes are considered. These lattices are built from number fields as coset codes of the ring of integers OK modulo an ideal I. Diversity of a Construction-A lattice on block-fading channels is guaranteed by the chain Im OKm. We study how the code alphabet size should be chosen in order to avoid error floors on the Gaussian channel due to the sublattice Im. Our aim is to get Construction-A lattices that are good for both Gaussian and block-fading channels.
