In this paper, a multiuser space-time line code (STLC) system is proposed. In the proposed multiuser STLC system, a zero-forcing (ZF)-based precoder decomposes multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels into multiple single-user MIMO channels, and the STLC is performed with the effective single user MIMO channel independently for each user. Here, to maximize the sum rate, an optimal power allocation method is designed based on a water-filling strategy. Also, a simple suboptimal method called fairness-aware per-user (FAPU) power allocation is devised. It is analytically and numerically verified that each user of the proposed ZF-based STLC system asymptotically achieves the maximum of single-user achievable rate as the number of transmit antennas increases. The numerical results of rigorous simulation justify that the proposed ZF-based STLC with FAPU power allocation provides near optimal performance and outperforms the existing ZF-based maximum Eigen beamforming scheme and conventional multiuser STLC schemes. Furthermore, two simple search algorithms to find the optimal number of users that maximizes sum rate are devised. Numerical results verify that the proposed algorithms can effectively find the optimal number of users by reducing the search interval.
