The [ 7 4 2 ] linear code, so constructed was combined with the known Hamming [ 7 4 3 ] code using the ( u|u+v)-construction method to obtain a new hybrid and more practical single [14 8 3 ] error- correcting code. In this paper, we provide an improvement by obtaining a much more practical and applicable double error correcting code whose extended version is a triple error correcting code, by combining the same codes as in [1]. Our goal is achieved through using the product code construction approach with the aid of some proven theorems.

DAVID FORNEY, JR., FELLOW, IEEE Invited Paper Abstract -The family of Barnes-Wall lattices (including D4 and E,) of increases by a factor of 21/2 (1.5 dB) for each doubling of lengths N = 2“ and their principal sublattices, which are useful in con- dimension. structing coset codes, are generated by iteration of a simple construction What may be obscured by the length of this paper is called the “squaring construction.” The closely related Reed-Muller codes are generated by the same construction. The principal properties of these that the construction of these lattices is extremely simple. codes and lattices, including distances, dimensions, partitions, generator The only building blocks needed are the set Z of ordinary matrices, and duality properties, are consequences of the general proper- integers, with its infinite chain of two-way partitions ties of iterated squaring constructions, which also exhibit the interrelation- 2/22/4Z/. , and an elementary construction that we ships between codes and lattices of different lengths. An extension called call the “squaring construction,” which produces chains of the “cubing construction” generates good codes and lattices of lengths 2N-tuples with certain guaranteed distance properties from N = 3.2”, including the Golay code and Leech lattice, with the use of special bases for 8-space. Another related construction generates the chains of N-tuples. Iteration of this construction produces Nordstrom-Robinson code and an analogous 16-dimensional nonlattice the entire family of lattices, determines their minimum packing. -
Mceliece Cryptosystem Based on Extended Golay Code
McEliece Cryptosystem Based On Extended Golay Code Amandeep Singh Bhatia∗ and Ajay Kumar Department of Computer Science, Thapar university, India E-mail: ∗[email protected] (Dated: November 16, 2018) With increasing advancements in technology, it is expected that the emergence of a quantum computer will potentially break many of the public-key cryptosystems currently in use. It will negotiate the confidentiality and integrity of communications. In this regard, we have privacy protectors (i.e. Post-Quantum Cryptography), which resists attacks by quantum computers, deals with cryptosystems that run on conventional computers and are secure against attacks by quantum computers. The practice of code-based cryptography is a trade-off between security and efficiency. In this chapter, we have explored The most successful McEliece cryptosystem, based on extended Golay code [24, 12, 8]. We have examined the implications of using an extended Golay code in place of usual Goppa code in McEliece cryptosystem. Further, we have implemented a McEliece cryptosystem based on extended Golay code using MATLAB. The extended Golay code has lots of practical applications. The main advantage of using extended Golay code is that it has codeword of length 24, a minimum Hamming distance of 8 allows us to detect 7-bit errors while correcting for 3 or fewer errors simultaneously and can be transmitted at high data rate. I. INTRODUCTION Over the last three decades, public key cryptosystems (Diffie-Hellman key exchange, the RSA cryptosystem, digital signature algorithm (DSA), and Elliptic curve cryptosystems) has become a crucial component of cyber security. In this regard, security depends on the difficulty of a definite number of theoretic problems (integer factorization or the discrete log problem). -
Coded Computing Via Binary Linear Codes: Designs and Performance Limits Mahdi Soleymani∗, Mohammad Vahid Jamali∗, and Hessam Mahdavifar, Member, IEEE
1 Coded Computing via Binary Linear Codes: Designs and Performance Limits Mahdi Soleymani∗, Mohammad Vahid Jamali∗, and Hessam Mahdavifar, Member, IEEE Abstract—We consider the problem of coded distributed processing capabilities. A coded computing scheme aims to computing where a large linear computational job, such as a divide the job to k < n tasks and then to introduce n − k matrix multiplication, is divided into k smaller tasks, encoded redundant tasks using an (n; k) code, in order to alleviate the using an (n; k) linear code, and performed over n distributed nodes. The goal is to reduce the average execution time of effect of slower nodes, also referred to as stragglers. In such a the computational job. We provide a connection between the setup, it is often assumed that each node is assigned one task problem of characterizing the average execution time of a coded and hence, the total number of encoded tasks is n equal to the distributed computing system and the problem of analyzing the number of nodes. error probability of codes of length n used over erasure channels. Recently, there has been extensive research activities to Accordingly, we present closed-form expressions for the execution time using binary random linear codes and the best execution leverage coding schemes in order to boost the performance time any linear-coded distributed computing system can achieve. of distributed computing systems [6]–[18]. However, most It is also shown that there exist good binary linear codes that not of the work in the literature focus on the application of only attain (asymptotically) the best performance that any linear maximum distance separable (MDS) codes. -
ERROR CORRECTING CODES Definition (Alphabet)
ERROR CORRECTING CODES Definition (Alphabet) An alphabet is a finite set of symbols. Example: A simple example of an alphabet is the set A := fB; #; 17; P; $; 0; ug. Definition (Codeword) A codeword is a string of symbols in an alphabet. Example: In the alphabet A := fB; #; 17; P; $; 0; ug, some examples of codewords of length 4 are: P 17#u; 0B$#; uBuB; 0000: Definition (Code) A code is a set of codewords in an alphabet. Example: In the alphabet A := fB; #; 17; P; $; 0; ug, an example of a code is the set of 5 words: fP 17#u; 0B$#; uBuB; 0000;PP #$g: If all the codewords are known and recorded in some dictionary then it is possible to transmit messages (strings of codewords) to another entity over a noisy channel and detect and possibly correct errors. For example in the code C := fP 17#u; 0B$#; uBuB; 0000;PP #$g if the word 0B$# is sent and received as PB$#, then if we knew that only one error was made it can be determined that the letter P was an error which can be corrected by changing P to 0. Definition (Linear Code) A linear code is a code where the codewords form a finite abelian group under addition. Main Problem of Coding Theory: To construct an alphabet and a code in that alphabet so it is as easy as possible to detect and correct errors in transmissions of codewords. A key idea for solving this problem is the notion of Hamming distance. Definition (Hamming distance dH ) Let C be a code and let 0 0 0 0 w = w1w2 : : : wn; w = w1w2 : : : wn; 0 0 be two codewords in C where wi; wj are elements of the alphabet of C. -
Improved List-Decodability of Random Linear Binary Codes
Improved list-decodability of random linear binary codes∗ Ray Li† and Mary Wootters‡ November 26, 2020 Abstract There has been a great deal of work establishing that random linear codes are as list- decodable as uniformly random codes, in the sense that a random linear binary code of rate 1 H(p) ǫ is (p, O(1/ǫ))-list-decodable with high probability. In this work, we show that such codes− are− (p,H(p)/ǫ + 2)-list-decodable with high probability, for any p (0, 1/2) and ǫ > 0. In addition to improving the constant in known list-size bounds, our argument—which∈ is quite simple—works simultaneously for all values of p, while previous works obtaining L = O(1/ǫ) patched together different arguments to cover different parameter regimes. Our approach is to strengthen an existential argument of (Guruswami, H˚astad, Sudan and Zuckerman, IEEE Trans. IT, 2002) to hold with high probability. To complement our up- per bound for random linear codes, we also improve an argument of (Guruswami, Narayanan, IEEE Trans. IT, 2014) to obtain an essentially tight lower bound of 1/ǫ on the list size of uniformly random codes; this implies that random linear codes are in fact more list-decodable than uniformly random codes, in the sense that the list sizes are strictly smaller. To demonstrate the applicability of these techniques, we use them to (a) obtain more in- formation about the distribution of list sizes of random linear codes and (b) to prove a similar result for random linear rank-metric codes. -
Coding Theory and Applications Solved Exercises and Problems Of
Coding Theory and Applications Solved Exercises and Problems of Linear Codes Enes Pasalic University of Primorska Koper, 2013 Contents 1 Preface 3 2 Problems 4 2 1 Preface This is a collection of solved exercises and problems of linear codes for students who have a working knowledge of coding theory. Its aim is to achieve a balance among the computational skills, theory, and applications of cyclic codes, while keeping the level suitable for beginning students. The contents are arranged to permit enough flexibility to allow the presentation of a traditional introduction to the subject, or to allow a more applied course. Enes Pasalic [email protected] 3 2 Problems In these exercises we consider some basic concepts of coding theory, that is we introduce the redundancy in the information bits and consider the possible improvements in terms of improved error probability of correct decoding. 1. (Error probability): Consider a code of length six n = 6 defined as, (a1; a2; a3; a2 + a3; a1 + a3; a1 + a2) where ai 2 f0; 1g. Here a1; a2; a3 are information bits and the remaining bits are redundancy (parity) bits. Compute the probability that the decoder makes an incorrect decision if the bit error probability is p = 0:001. The decoder computes the following entities b1 + b3 + b4 = s1 b1 + b3 + b5 == s2 b1 + b2 + b6 = s3 where b = (b1; b2; : : : ; b6) is a received vector. We represent the error vector as e = (e1; e2; : : : ; e6) and clearly if a vector (a1; a2; a3; a2+ a3; a1 + a3; a1 + a2) was transmitted then b = a + e, where '+' denotes bitwise mod 2 addition. -
Reed-Solomon Encoding and Decoding
Bachelor's Thesis Degree Programme in Information Technology 2011 León van de Pavert REED-SOLOMON ENCODING AND DECODING A Visual Representation i Bachelor's Thesis | Abstract Turku University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Information Technology Spring 2011 | 37 pages Instructor: Hazem Al-Bermanei León van de Pavert REED-SOLOMON ENCODING AND DECODING The capacity of a binary channel is increased by adding extra bits to this data. This improves the quality of digital data. The process of adding redundant bits is known as channel encod- ing. In many situations, errors are not distributed at random but occur in bursts. For example, scratches, dust or fingerprints on a compact disc (CD) introduce errors on neighbouring data bits. Cross-interleaved Reed-Solomon codes (CIRC) are particularly well-suited for detection and correction of burst errors and erasures. Interleaving redistributes the data over many blocks of code. The double encoding has the first code declaring erasures. The second code corrects them. The purpose of this thesis is to present Reed-Solomon error correction codes in relation to burst errors. In particular, this thesis visualises the mechanism of cross-interleaving and its ability to allow for detection and correction of burst errors. KEYWORDS: Coding theory, Reed-Solomon code, burst errors, cross-interleaving, compact disc ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It is a pleasure to thank those who supported me making this thesis possible. I am thankful to my supervisor, Hazem Al-Bermanei, whose intricate know- ledge of coding theory inspired me, and whose lectures, encouragement, and support enabled me to develop an understanding of this subject. -

Using of error correction codes is divided into two main operations: information coding before sending information into communication channel and decoding received information at the other side. There are vast of decod- ing algorithms of Reed-Solomon codes, which have specific features. There is needed knowledge of features of algorithms to choose correct algorithm which satisfies requirements of system. There are evaluated cyclic decoding algo- rithm, Peterson-Gorenstein-Zierler algorithm, Berlekamp-Massey algorithm, Sugiyama algorithm with erasures and without erasures and Guruswami- Sudan algorithm. There was done implementation of algorithms in software and in hardware. -
The Binary Golay Code and the Leech Lattice
The binary Golay code and the Leech lattice Recall from previous talks: Def 1: (linear code) A code C over a field F is called linear if the code contains any linear combinations of its codewords A k-dimensional linear code of length n with minimal Hamming distance d is said to be an [n, k, d]-code. Why are linear codes interesting? ● Error-correcting codes have a wide range of applications in telecommunication. ● A field where transmissions are particularly important is space probes, due to a combination of a harsh environment and cost restrictions. ● Linear codes were used for space-probes because they allowed for just-in-time encoding, as memory was error-prone and heavy. Space-probe example The Hamming weight enumerator Def 2: (weight of a codeword) The weight w(u) of a codeword u is the number of its nonzero coordinates. Def 3: (Hamming weight enumerator) The Hamming weight enumerator of C is the polynomial: n n−i i W C (X ,Y )=∑ Ai X Y i=0 where Ai is the number of codeword of weight i. Example (Example 2.1, [8]) For the binary Hamming code of length 7 the weight enumerator is given by: 7 4 3 3 4 7 W H (X ,Y )= X +7 X Y +7 X Y +Y Dual and doubly even codes Def 4: (dual code) For a code C we define the dual code C˚ to be the linear code of codewords orthogonal to all of C. Def 5: (doubly even code) A binary code C is called doubly even if the weights of all its codewords are divisible by 4. -
