A constant weight binary code consists of $n$-bit binary codewords, each with exactly $w$ bits equal to 1, such that any two codewords are at least Hamming distance $d$ apart. $A(n,d,w)$ is the maximum size of a constant weight binary code…

The projective space of order $n$ over a finite field $\F_q$ is a set of all subspaces of the vector space $\F_q^{n}$. In this work, we consider error-correcting codes in the projective space, focusing mainly on constant dimension codes. We…
The performance of an error correcting code is evaluated by its error probability, rate, and en/decoding complexity. The performance of a series of codes is evaluated by, as the block lengths approach infinity, whether their error…

In this paper we study spread codes: a family of constant-dimension codes for random linear network coding. In other words, the codewords are full-rank matrices of size (k x n) with entries in a finite field F_q. Spread codes are a family…
We present constructions of Space-Time (ST) codes based on lattice coset coding. First, we focus on ST code constructions for the short block-length case, i.e., when the block-length is equal to or slightly larger than the number of…
Optimal (v, 4, 2, 1) optical orthogonal codes (OOC) with $v<=75$ and $v\ne 71$ are classified up to equivalence. One $(v, 4, 2, 1)$ OOC is presented for all $v\le 181$, for which an optimal OOC exists.
