Let \(S\) be a compact and star-shaped set of positive volume in \(\mathbb{R}^ n\). For a subset \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^ n\) the minimum lattice covering density of \(\Omega\) by translates of \(S\) is defined by \[ \vartheta_ L(S,\Omega)=\text{Vol}(S)/\sup\{\text{det }\lambda\;|\;\Omega\subset\Lambda+S\text{ and \(\Lambda\) lattice}\}. \] The author obtains an upper bound on \(\vartheta_ L(S,\mathbb{Z}^ n)\), in particular also in the special and important case if \(S\) is a convex body.
