Sphere packings constructed from BCH and Justesen codes

Abstract. Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem and Justesen codes are used to pack equa spheres in n–dimensional Euclidean space with density Δ satisfying for all sufficiently large n of the form m 2m, where m is a power of 4. These appear to be the densest packings yet constructed in high dimensional space.
