چکیده

We consider weighted Reed-Muller codes over point ensemble S1 × · · · × Sm where Si needs not be of the same size as Sj . For m = 2 we determine optimal weights and analyze in detail what is the impact of the ratio |S1|/|S2| on the minimum distance. In conclusion the weighted Reed-Muller code construction is much better than its reputation. For a class of affine variety codes that contains the weighted Reed-Muller codes we then present two list decoding algorithms. With a small modification one of these algorithms is able to correct up to 31 errors of the [49, 11, 28] Joyner code.

New descriptions of the weighted Reed-Muller codes and the homogeneous Reed-Muller codes

We give a description of the weighted Reed-Muller codes over a prime field in a modular algebra. A description of the homogeneous Reed-Muller codes in the same ambient space is presented for the binary case. A decoding procedure using the Landrock-Manz method is developed.

Minimal/nonminimal codewords in the second order binary Reed-Muller codes: revisited

The result on the weight distribution of minimal codewords in the second order binary Reed-Muller code RM(2, m), was announced for the first time by Ashikhmin and Barg at ACCT’94. They gave only a sketch of the proof and later on a short and nice complete proof of geometric nature was exhibited in their paper: A. Ashikhmin and A. Barg, ”Minimal Vectors in Linear Codes”, IEEE Trans. on Informati...

oft-decision majority decoding of Reed-Muller codes

We present a new soft-decision majority decoding algorithm for Reed–Muller codes RM ( ). First, the reliabilities of 2 transmitted symbols are recalculated into the reliabilities of 2 parity checks that represent each information bit. In turn, information bits are obtained by the weighted majority that gives more weight to more reliable parity checks. It is proven that for long low-rate codes R...

Another Generalization of the Reed-Muller Codes

The punctured binary Reed-Muller code is cyclic and was generalized into the punctured generalized ReedMuller code over GF(q) in the literature. The major objective of this paper is to present another generalization of the punctured binary Reed-Muller code. Another objective is to construct a family of reversible cyclic codes that are related to the newly generalized Reed-Muller codes. Index Te...

On the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes

In this paper, we study the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes. Using results from [6], we prove under some restrictive condition that the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes depends on the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes of small order with two variables. In some cases, we are able to determine the third weight and the third weight codewords of generalized Re...
