Abstract

The $m$-covering radii of codes are natural generalizations of the covering radii of codes. In this paper we analyze the 2-covering radii of double error correcting BCH code. In particular, we show that the 2-covering radius of the double error correcting BCH code is $(n+1)/2$ for sufficiently large $n$.

Highlights

  • Multicovering radii are generalizations of the covering radius

  • Given a code C of length n, the m-covering radius of C, denoted by tm(C), is the smallest natural number r such that every m-tuple of vectors in F n is contained in a ball of radius r centered around some codeword of C

  • We show that the 2-covering radius of the double error correcting BCH code is (n + 1)/2 for sufficiently large n

Summary

Introduction

Multicovering radii are generalizations of the covering radius. Let m and n be natural numbers. Given a code C of length n, the m-covering radius of C, denoted by tm(C), is the smallest natural number r such that every m-tuple of vectors in F n is contained in a ball of radius r centered around some codeword of C. We show that the 2-covering radius of the double error correcting BCH code is (n + 1)/2 for sufficiently large n.
