Larger Size Subspace Codes with Low Communication Overhead

Lingling Wu, Yongfeng Niu · Symmetry · 2025

Köetter and Kschischang proposed a coding algorithm for network error correction based on subspace codes, which, however, has a high communication overhead (100%). This paper improves upon their coding algorithm and presents a coding algorithm for network error correction with lower communication overhead, which is similar to the communication overhead of classical random network coding. In particular, we utilize the inherent symmetry in subspace codes to optimize the construction process, leading to a more efficient algorithm. At the same time, this paper also studies the construction problem of constant dimension subspace codes, utilizing parallel construction and multilevel construction. By exploiting the symmetry in these methods, we generalize previous results and derive new lower bounds for constant dimension subspace codes.
