Noncyclic generalizations of BCH and srivastava codes

Codes between Bch and Rs Codes

The codes obtained as the shortened binary image of linear codes over GF(2m) are studied in detail. Their dimension is computed and it is shown that they may be used as unequal error proteetion codes.

Quantum Bch Codes

After a brief introduction to both quantum computation and quantum error correction, we show how to construct quantum error-correcting codes based on classical BCH codes. With these codes, decoding can exploit additional information about the position of errors. This error model—the quantum erasure channel—is discussed. Finally, parameters of quantum BCH codes are provided.

BCH convolutional codes

Using a new parity-check matrix, a class of convolutional codes with a designed free distance is introduced. This new class of codes has many characteristics of BCH block codes, therefore, we call these codes BCH convolutional codes.

Constructions of new families of nonbinary asymmetric quantum BCH codes and subsystem BCH codes

Two code constructions generating new families of good nonbinary asymmetric quantum BCH codes and good nonbinary subsystem BCH codes are presented in this paper. The first one is derived from q-ary Steane’s enlargement of CSS codes applied to nonnarrow-sense BCH codes. The second one is derived from the method of defining sets of classical cyclic codes. The asymmetric quantum BCH codes and subs...
