Let q ≥ 3 be odd prime power. Maximal designed distances of non-primitive Hermitian dual containing q2- ary BCH codes of length n = (q4-1)/2 and 2(q2-1) are determined. For each given n, a group of non-narrow-sense Hermitian dual containing BCH codes are constructed and their dimensions are computed. Using these non-narrow-sense BCH codes, many new quantum codes are constructed. Our maximal designed distances improve upon the known results in the literature and many of new quantum BCH codes are better than those constructed from narrow-sense BCH codes.
Let q≥3 be a prime power. Maximal designed distances of primitive Hermitian dual containing q2-ary BCH codes (narrow-sense or non-narrow-sense) are determined by a careful analysis of properties of cyclotomic cosets. Non-narrow-sense BCH codes which achieve these maximal designed distances are presented, and a sequence of nested non-narrow-sense BCH codes that contain these BCH codes with maximal designed distances are constructed and their parameters are computed. Consequently, new nonbinary quantum BCH codes are derived from these non-narrow-sense BCH codes. The nonbinary quantum BCH codes presented here have better parameters than those quantum BCH codes available in the literature.
Abstract: Let q=3l+2 be a prime power. Maximal designed distances of imprimitive Hermitian dual containing q 2-ary narrow-sense (NS) BCH codes of length n = (q6 −1) 3 and n=3(q 2 − 1)(q 2 + q+1) are determined. For each given n, non-narrow-sense (NNS) BCH codes which achieve such maximal designed distances are presented, and a series of NS and NNS BCH codes are constructed and their parameters are computed. Consequently, many families of q-ary quantum BCH codes are derived from these BCH codes. Some of these quantum BCH codes constructed from NNS BCH codes have better parameters than those quantum BCH codes available in the literature, and some others are new ones.
By a careful analysis on cyclotomic cosets, the maximal designed distance δnew of narrow-sense imprimitive Euclidean dual containing q-ary BCH code of length [Formula: see text] is determined, where q is a prime power and l is odd. Our maximal designed distance δnew of dual containing narrow-sense BCH codes of length n improves upon the lower bound δmax for maximal designed distances of dual containing narrow-sense BCH codes given by Aly et al. [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory53 (2007) 1183]. A series of non-narrow-sense dual containing BCH codes of length n, including the ones whose designed distances can achieve or exceed δnew, are given, and their dimensions are computed. Then new quantum BCH codes are constructed from these non-narrow-sense imprimitive BCH codes via Steane construction, and these new quantum codes are better than previous results in the literature.
