Abstract :
Let A(n, d) denote the maximum possible number of codewords in an (n, d) binary code. We establish four new bounds on A(n, d), namely, A(21, 4)⩽43689, A(22, 4)⩽87378, A(22, 6)⩽6941, and A(23, 4)⩽173491. Furthermore, using previous upper bounds on the size of constant-weight binary codes, we reapply known methods to generate a table of bounds on A(n, d) for all n⩽28. This table extends the range of parameters compared with previously known tables
