Five Families of Three-Weight Ternary Cyclic Codes and Their Duals (1308.5373v1)
Published 25 Aug 2013 in cs.IT and math.IT
Abstract: As a subclass of linear codes, cyclic codes have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems, and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, five families of three-weight ternary cyclic codes whose duals have two zeros are presented. The weight distributions of the five families of cyclic codes are settled. The duals of two families of the cyclic codes are optimal.
