Abstract

This paper investigates the concept of self-dual convolutional code. We derive the basic properties of this interesting class of codes and we show how some of the techniques to construct self-dual linear block codes generalize to self-dual convolutional codes. As for self-dual linear block codes we are able to give a complete classification for some small parameters.
