Griesmer boundIn the mathematics of coding theory, the Griesmer bound, named after James Hugo Griesmer, is a bound on the length of linear binary codes of dimension k and minimum distance d. There is also a very similar version for non-binary codes. For a binary linear code, the Griesmer bound is: Let denote the minimum length of a binary code of dimension k and distance d. Let C be such a code. We want to show that Let G be a generator matrix of C. We can always suppose that the first row of G is of the form r = (1, ...
Johnson boundIn applied mathematics, the Johnson bound (named after Selmer Martin Johnson) is a limit on the size of error-correcting codes, as used in coding theory for data transmission or communications. Let be a q-ary code of length , i.e. a subset of . Let be the minimum distance of , i.e. where is the Hamming distance between and . Let be the set of all q-ary codes with length and minimum distance and let denote the set of codes in such that every element has exactly nonzero entries. Denote by the number of elements in .
Singleton boundIn coding theory, the Singleton bound, named after Richard Collom Singleton, is a relatively crude upper bound on the size of an arbitrary block code with block length , size and minimum distance . It is also known as the Joshibound. proved by and even earlier by . The minimum distance of a set of codewords of length is defined as where is the Hamming distance between and . The expression represents the maximum number of possible codewords in a -ary block code of length and minimum distance .
Code parfait et code MDSLes codes parfaits et les codes à distance séparable maximale (MDS), sont des types de codes correcteurs d'erreur. Un code correcteur est un code permettant au récepteur de détecter ou de corriger des altérations à la suite de la transmission ou du stockage. Elle est rendue possible grâce à une redondance de l'information. Un code est dit parfait s'il ne contient aucune redondance inutile. Le concept correspond à un critère d'optimalité. Un code est dit MDS s'il vérifie un autre critère d'optimalité s'exprimant dans le contexte des codes linéaires.
