We propose an efficient algorithm to find a Reed-Solomon (RS) codeword at a distance within the covering radius of the code from any point in its ambient Hamming space. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first attempt of its…

We construct $s$-interleaved linearized Reed--Solomon (ILRS) codes and variants and propose efficient decoding schemes that can correct errors beyond the unique decoding radius in the sum-rank metric. The proposed interpolation-based scheme…

The classical family of Reed-Solomon codes consist of evaluations of polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of degree less than $k$, at $n$ distinct field elements. These are arguably the most widely used and studied codes, as…

In 2017, Beelen et al. firstly introduced twisted generalized Reed-Solomon (in short, TGRS) codes, and constructed a large subclass of MDS TGRS codes. Later, they proved that TGRS code is non-GRS when the code rate is less than one half. In…
