Compared with classical block codes, efficient list decoding of rank-metric codes seems more difficult. Although the list decodability of random rank-metric codes and limits to list decodability have been completely determined, little work…

A linear code with parameters of the form $[n, k, n-k+1]$ is referred to as an MDS (maximum distance separable) code. A linear code with parameters of the form $[n, k, n-k]$ is said to be almost MDS (i.e., almost maximum distance separable)…
The distance profiles of linear block codes can be employed to design variational coding scheme for encoding message with variational length and getting lower decoding error probability by large minimum Hamming distance. %, e.g. the design…
