A construction of optimal locally recoverable codes

Xiaoru Li, Ziling Heng · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2022

Locally recoverable codes are widely used in distributed and cloud storage systems. The objective of this paper is to present a construction of near MDS codes with oval polynomials and then determine the locality of the codes. It turns out that the near MDS codes and their duals are both distance-optimal and dimension-optimal locally recoverable codes. The lengths of the locally recoverable codes are different from known ones in the literature.
