Abstract

In this paper we construct F-2-linear codes over F-2(b) with length n and dimension n - r where n = rb. These codes have good properties, namely cyclicity, low density parity-check matrices and maximum distance separation in some cases. For the construction, we consider an odd prime p, let n = p - 1 and utilize a partition of Z(n). Then we apply a Zech logarithm to the elements of these sets and use the results to construct an index array which represents the parity-check matrix of the code. These codes are always cyclic and the density of the parity-check and the generator matrices decreases to 0 as n grows (for a fixed r). When r = 2 we prove that these codes are always maximum distance separable. For higher r some of them retain this property. (AU)
