Both the conventional space-time codes and coding techniques in frequency domain were employed to build high rate and low rate space-time-frequency message matrices. Then both types of message matrices were differentially transmitted alternately in the frequency domain. Consequently, the total transmission rate could be improved greatly. At receiver, a simple decision feedback differential detector （SDF-DD） was adopted to further enhance the total error performance with approximate DD complexity. Simulation results verified that the proposed scheme can implement high rate and high reliability differential transmission.
