Abstract
The problem of constructing unitary space-time codes with high diversity product has been studied in many prior works. Recently, constructions of parametric fully diverse unitary space-time codes for prime number antennas system have been introduced. In this paper, the authors propose new construction methods based on these constructions. And fully diverse codes of any number antennas are obtained from these constructions. Unitary space-time codes from present constructions are found to have better error performance than many best known ones.
