New Results on Codes Correcting Single Error of Limited Magnitude for Flash Memory
Tao Zhang, Gennian Ge · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 2016
Some physical effects that limit the reliability and performance of multilevel flash memories induce errors that have low magnitudes and are dominantly asymmetric. This motivated the application of the asymmetric limited magnitude error model in flash memory. In this paper, we present a new construction of quasi-perfect codes for such errors, and we also study the perfect codes with symmetric errors. Moreover, we show some nonexistence results on perfect codes for correcting single error of limited magnitude.
