  • Abstract
    P. Deligne´s theorem (1974) is used to prove that the covering radius of a primitive binary BCH code with designed distance 2t+1 is equal to 2t-1 if t is of the form 2 u+1 and the code length is at least (2t)4t-2 . It is believed that this is the first time Deligne´s theorem is used on coding theory
