Xuejun Zhao · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2008
The subcodes of binary self-dual codes whose length n between 22 and 30 and minimum distance six are studied by using of a random search algorithm,and the subcodes of dual distance 3,4,5 and 6 of these self-dual codes are constructed.The code chains of these self-orthogonal subcodes and the S-chains obtained from the dual of these self-orthogonal subcodes are also determined.According to Steane’s construction,some very good quantum codes of distance five and six are constructed by the obtained S-chains,and some of these quantum codes have improved parameters than previously known codes.
