  • Abstract
    All words in a balanced code have equal number of ones and zeros. Denote by DC(n,k) a balanced (or dc-free) code of length n, and 2k code words. We design an efficient DC(k+r, k) code with k=2r+1-0.8√(r-2). These codes are optimal up to the construction method, introduced by D.E. Knuth (1986)
