Some results on arithmetic codes of composite length
Tai-Yang Hwang, Carlos R. P. Hartmann · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1978
A new upper bound on the minimum distance of binary cyclic arithmetic codes of composite length is derived. New classes of binary cyclic arithmetic codes of composite length are introduced. The error correction capability of these codes is discussed, and in some cases the actual minimum distance is found. Decoding algorithms based on majority-logic decision are proposed for these codes.
