Higher-Order MDS Codes
Published 5 Nov 2021 in cs.IT, cs.DM, and math.IT | (2111.03210v2)
Abstract: An improved Singleton-type upper bound is presented for the list decoding radius of linear codes, in terms of the code parameters [n,k,d] and the list size L. L-MDS codes are then defined as codes that attain this bound (under a slightly stronger notion of list decodability), with 1-MDS codes corresponding to ordinary linear MDS codes. Several properties of such codes are presented; in particular, it is shown that the 2-MDS property is preserved under duality. Finally, explicit constructions for 2-MDS codes are presented through generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes.
