Abstract: | The problem of finding the values of Aq(n,d)—the maximum size of a code of length n and minimum distance d over an alphabet of q elements—is considered. Upper and lower bounds on A4(n,d) are presented and some values of this function are settled. A table of best known bounds on A4(n,d) is given for n 12. When q M < 2q, all parameters for which Aq(n,d) = M are determined. |
