Description
BW lattice in dimension \(4\), which is the lattice corresponding to the \([4,1,4]\) repetition and \([4,3,2]\) SPC codes via Construction A.
Protection
The \(D_4\) lattice has a density of \(\pi^2/16\approx 0.6169\) and nominal coding gain of \(\sqrt{2}\). It exhibits the densest lattice packing in four dimensions [1].
