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…
A linear code is called an MDS self-dual code if it is both an MDS code and a self-dual code with respect to the Euclidean inner product. The parameters of such codes are completely determined by the code length. In this paper, we consider…
Rank metric codes and constant-dimension codes (CDCs) have been considered for error control in random network coding. Since decoder errors are more detrimental to system performance than decoder failures, in this paper we investigate the…
