Abstract :
A new class of binary codes is introduced. The codes have length n = 1.5 · 2m (m ¿ 3), and have a similar `double inductive¿ structure to that possessed by the class of Reed-Muller (RM) codes. The new codes are structured such that their length-to-distance ratio n/d = 2m, m ¿ 2. For rates less than 1/2, the new codes have a higher rate than the next Reed-Muller code of the same order and length n = 2 · 2m.
