By G. Cohen, I. Honkala, S. Litsyn, A. Lobstein

The issues of creating overlaying codes and of estimating their parameters are the most difficulty of this booklet. It offers a unified account of the newest idea of protecting codes and indicates how a few mathematical and engineering matters are concerning protecting problems.Scientists curious about discrete arithmetic, combinatorics, computing device technology, details idea, geometry, algebra or quantity conception will locate the publication of specific value. it's designed either as an introductory textbook for the newbie and as a reference e-book for the specialist mathematician and engineer.A variety of unsolved difficulties appropriate for learn initiatives also are mentioned.

A binary word of length n. W h a t is the smallest number of bets needed to guarantee that at least one of them has at most r incorrect predictions? Clearly such a collection of bets is a covering of the n-dimensional Hamming space with spheres of radius r. Accepting ties as possible outcomes leads to an analogous problem with ternary words. 6 W r i t e - o n c e m e m o r i e s : Consider a storage medium nW O M consisting of n binary positions called wits initially set at 0. , by a laser beam in some digital optical disks.

It is an important tool in the analysis of possible distance distributions of codes. Moreover, it can be used to study the weight structure of the cosets. This topic is treated in more detail in Chapter 8. Here the proofs are given only for the binary case, which makes the presentation simpler. We start with characters. Let x and y be two vectors in IF'~.
