Dual product constructions of Reed - Muller type codes (Corresp.) |

Abstract: | Various linear and nonlinearR(r,m)codes having parameters(2^{m}, 2^{k}, 2^{m-r})withk=sum_{i=0}^{r}left(^{m}_{i}right)are constructed fromR(r,q)andR(r,p)codes,m=p+q. A dual construction forR(m-r,m)codes fromR(p-r,p)andR(q-r,q)codes is also presented,m=p+q. As a simple corollary we have that the number of nonequivalentR(r,m)codes is at least exponential in the length (forr>1). ForR(m-r,m)codes, the lower bound is doubly exponential in the length (forr>1). |
