Constructions of full diversity \(D_n\)-lattices for all \(n\) (Q2204736): Difference between revisions

A lattice is a discrete additive subgroup of \(n\) dimensional Euclidean space and the lattice \(D_n\) is given by \(D_n = \{ (x_1,\dots,x_n \ | \ \exists m \in {\mathbb Z}, \sum x_i = 2m \}.\) The authors construct families of full diversity rotated \(D_n\)-lattices for any \(n \geq 3.\) They show that \(\mathbb Z\) modules used to obtain \({\mathbb Z}^n\) rotated lattices for odd \(n\) are ideals and a sufficient condition is given for the ideals to be principal. They analyze the minimum product distance of \(D_n\) and \({\mathbb Z}_n\). They give a comparison between the minimum product distance and center density of the rotated \(D_n\)-lattices in this work and rotated \({\mathbb Z}^n\) lattices constructed in earlier work.
