Bounds on the undetected error probabilities of linear codes forboth error correction and detection

The author investigates the (n, k, d⩾2t+1) binary linear codes, which are used for correcting error patterns of weight at most t and detecting other error patterns over a binary symmetric channel. In particular, for t=1, it is shown that there exists one code whose probability of undetected errors is upper-bounded by (n+1) [2^n-k-n]^-1 when used on a binary symmetric channel with transition probability less than 2/n
