Abstract
The modified Plotkin bound for unequal error protection (UEP) codes is derived. Based on the separation vector of UEP codes, the authors adopt the average separation of all information digits of a given UEP code, and replacing it with minimum distance in the normal Plotkin bound leads to the new bound, which is valid for both linear and nonlinear UEP codes
