  • Abstract
    The quaternary Goethals code is a Z4-linear code of length 2m which has 2(2m+1-3m-2) codewords and minimum Lee distance 8 for any odd m⩾3. The Gray map of this code is known to be a nonlinear binary (2m+1, 2(2m+1-3m-2), 8) code. The covering radius of the Z4 -linear Goethals code is 6 and we present a complete decoding algorithm for the code
