  • Abstract
    A linear code C over GF (q) is good for t -error-correction and error detection if P(C,t;\\epsilon) \\leq P(C,t;(q - 1)/q) for all \\epsilon, 0 \\leq \\epsilon \\leq (q - 1)/q , where P(C, t; \\epsilon) is the probability of an undetected error after a codeword in C is transmitted over a q -ary symmetric channel with error probability \\epsilon and correction is performed for all error patterns with t or fewer errors. A sufficient condition for a code to be good is derived. This sufficient condition is easy to check, and examples to illustrate the method are given.
