Abstract: Space-time block codes are code technologies which provide a new paradigm for transmit ting over Rayleigh fading channels using multiple antennas. An overview of the space-time codes is made in terms of the system model, encoding and decoding algorithm, design criterion, concatenation of space-time codes and outer codes.

Key words: space-time block codes, wireless communication, diversity
