Construction of MDS Euclidean Self-Dual Codes via Two Subsets

Construction of MDS self-dual codes over Galois rings

The purpose of this paper is to construct nontrivial MDS self-dual codes over Galois rings. We consider a building-up construction of self-dual codes over Galois rings as a GF(q)-analogue of [20]. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on which the building-up construction holds. We construct MDS self-dual codes of lengths up to 8 over GR(3, 2), GR(3, 2) and GR(3, 2), and near-MDS self-du...

Construction of MDS self-dual codes from orthogonal matrices

In this paper, we give algorithms and methods of construction of self-dual codes over finite fields using orthogonal matrices. Randomization in the orthogonal group, and code extension are the main tools. Some optimal, almost MDS, and MDS self-dual codes over both small and large prime fields are constructed.

MDS and self-dual codes over rings

In this paper we give the structure of constacyclic codes over formal power series and chain rings. We also present necessary and sufficient conditions on the existence of MDS codes over principal ideal rings. These results allow for the construction of infinite families of MDS self-dual codes over finite chain rings, formal power series and principal ideal rings.

Orthogonal designs and MDS self-dual codes

New MDS Self-Dual Codes from Generalized Reed-Solomon Codes

Both MDS and Euclidean self-dual codes have theoretical and practical importance and the study of MDS self-dual codes has attracted lots of attention in recent years. In particular, determining existence of q-ary MDS self-dual codes for various lengths has been investigated extensively. The problem is completely solved for the case where q is even. The current paper focuses on the case where q ...
