A Note on Linear Codes over Semigroup Rings

Antonio Aparecido de Andrade, Tariq Shah, Atlas Khan

Abstract


Abstract. In this paper, we introduced new construction techniques of BCH, alternant, Goppa, Srivastava codes through the semigroup ring B[X; 13Z0] instead of the polynomial ring B[X; Z0], where B is a finite commutative ring with identity, and for these constructions we improve the several results of [1]. After this, we present a decoding principle for BCH, alternant and Goppa codes which is based on modified Berlekamp-Massey algorithm. This algorithm corrects all errors up tothe Hamming weight t r/2, i.e., whose minimum Hamming distance is r + 1.
