New Families of Triple Error Correcting Codes with BCH Parameters
Abstract
Description
Discovered by Bose, Chaudhuri and Hocquenghem, the BCH family of error correcting codes are one of the most studied families in coding theory. They are also among the best performing codes, particularly when the number of errors being corrected is small relative to the code length. In this article we consider binary codes with minimum distance of 7. We construct new families of codes with these BCH parameters via a generalisation of the Kasami-Welch Theorem.
