چکیده

Motivated by applications in cryptology, Wei (1991) introduced the concept of a generalized Hamming weight for a linear block code. In this correspondence, we define generalized Hamming weights for the class of convolutional codes and we derive several of their basic properties. By restricting to convolutional codes having a generator matrix G(D) with bounded Kronecker indices we are able to derive upper and lower bounds on the weight hierarchy

On the Generalized Hamming Weights of Convolutional

Motivated by applications in cryptology K. Wei introduced in 1991 the concept of a generalized Hamming weight for a linear block code. In this paper we deene generalized Hamming weights for the class of convolutional codes and we derive several of their basic properties. By restricting to convolutional codes having a generator matrix G(D) with bounded Kronecker indices we are able to derive upp...

The twisted squaring construction, trellis complexity, and generalized weights of BCH and QR codes

The structure of the twisted squaring construction, a generalization of the squaring construction, is studied with respect to trellis diagrams and complexity. We show that binary affine-invariant codes, which include the extended primitive BCH codes, and the extended binary quadratic-residue codes, are equivalent to twisted squaring construction codes. In particular, a recursive symmetric rever...

A class of cyclotomic linear codes and their generalized Hamming weights

Abstract Firstly, we give a formula on the generalized Hamming weight of linear codes constructed generically by defining sets. Secondly, by choosing properly the defining set we obtain a class of cyclotomic linear codes and then present two alternative formulas to calculate their generalized Hamming weights. Lastly, we determine their weight distribution and generalized Hamming weights partial...

Some bounds for the relative generalized Hamming weights of some evaluation codes

In this paper we find some bounds for the relative generalized Hamming weights of some codes parameterized by a set of monomials of the same degree. Also we compare the relative generalized Hamming weights of the codes CX(d) and CX′(d) when X ′ is embedded in X. We use these results to obtain some lower bounds for the relative generalized Hamming weights of the codes parameterized by the edges ...

Generalized Hamming weights of a class of linear codes

In [22], Kelan Ding and Cunsheng Ding presented a class of linear codes and determined their weight distributions. In this paper, we focus on the generalized Hamming weights of these codes. In order to do so, we study the quadratic forms over subspaces of finite field and obtain some interesting results about subspaces and their dual spaces. On this basis, we solve all the generalized Hamming w...
