Generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes with arbitrary lengths over the ring $\mathbb{F}_{q}+u\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $u^2=0$, $q=p^n$, $n$ a positive integer and $p$ a prime number, are investigated. By the Chinese Remainder Theorem,…

Reed-Solomon (RS) codes over GF$(2^m)$ have traditionally been the most popular non-binary codes in almost all practical applications. The distance properties of RS codes result in excellent performance under hard-decision bounded-distance…

With respect to the transversal gate group (an invariant of quantum codes), we demonstrate that non-additive codes can outperform stabilizer codes. We do this by constructing spin codes that correspond to permutation-invariant multiqubit…
Most design approaches for trellis-coded quantization take advantage of the duality of trellis-coded quantization with trellis-coded modulation, and use the same empirically-found convolutional codes to label the trellis branches. This…
