Idempotents and the BCH Bound

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Using a characterization of the idempotents of a narrow-sense primitive binary BCH code, we are able to give classes of such codes whose minimum distance does not exceed the BCH bound. Our results are compiled in a table.
