New soft- and hard decision decoding algorithms are presented for general Reed-Muller codes $\left\{\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{m}{r}\right\} $ of length $2^{m}$ and distance $2^{m-r}$. We use Plotkin $(u,u+v)$ construction and decompose code…

Transmit a codeword $x$, that belongs to an $(\ell-1)$-deletion-correcting code of length $n$, over a $t$-deletion channel for some $1\le \ell\le t<n$. Levenshtein, in 2001, proposed the problem of determining $N(n,\ell,t)+1$, the minimum…
