Abstract:
A new bound on the distance of binary cyclic codes is
proposed. The approach is based on the representation
of a subset of the roots of the generator polynomial by
a rational function. A new bound on the minimum
distance is proven and several classes of binary cyclic
codes are identified. For some classes of codes, this
bound is better than the known bounds (e.g. BCH or
Hartmann-Tzeng bound). Furthermore, a quadratic-time
decoding algorithm up to this new bound is developed.
