  • Abstract
    In this paper, we introduce a new covering radius of RM(r,n) from cryptography viewpoint. It is defined as the maximum distance between t-resilient functions and the rth order Reed-Muller code RM(r,n). We next derive its lower and upper bounds. We further present a table of numerical data of our bounds.
