This letter is concerned with incorrigible sets of binary linear codes. For a given binary linear code C, we represent the numbers of incorrigible sets of size up to ⌈3/2d - 1⌉ using the weight enumerator of C, where d is the minimum distance of C. In addition, we determine the incorrigible set enumerators of binary Golay codes G23 and G24 through combinatorial methods.
In this letter, we investigate the separating redundancy of binary linear codes. Using analytical techniques, we provide a general lower bound on the first separating redundancy of binary linear codes and show the bound is tight for a particular family of binary linear codes, i.e., cycle codes. In other words, the first separating redundancy of cycle codes can be determined. We also derive a deterministic and constructive upper bound on the second separating redundancy of cycle codes, which is shown to be better than the general deterministic and constructive upper bounds for the codes.
The central limit theorem (CLT) claims that the standardized sum of a random sequence converges in distribution to a normal random variable as the length tends to infinity. We prove the existence of a family of counterexamples to the CLT for d-tuplewise independent sequences of length n for all d=2,...,n-1. The proof is based on [n, k, d+1] binary linear codes. Our result implies that d-tuplewise independence is too weak to justify the CLT, even if the size d grows linearly in length n.

Generalized Minimum Distance (GMD) decoding is a well-known soft-decision decoding for linear codes. Previous research on GMD decoding focused mainly on unquantized AWGN channels with BPSK signaling for binary linear codes. In this paper, a study on the design of a 4-level uniform quantizer for GMD decoding is given. In addition, an extended version of a GMD decoding algorithm for a 4-level quantizer is proposed, and the effectiveness of the proposed decoding is shown by simulation.
In this paper, a study of a sufficient condition on the optimality of a decoded codeword of soft-decision decodings for binary linear codes is shown for a quantized case. A typical uniform 4-level quantizer for soft-decision decodings is employed for the analysis. Simulation results on the (64,42,8) Reed-Muller code indicates that the condition is effective for SN ratios at 3[dB] or higher for any iterative style optimum decodings.
In this paper, a study on the design and implementation of uniform 4-level quantizers for soft-decision decodings for binary linear codes is shown. Simulation results on quantized Viterbi decoding with a 4-level quantizer for the (64,42,8) Reed-Muller code show that the optimum stepsize, which is derived from the cutoff rate, gives an almost optimum error performance. In addition, the simulation results show that the case where the number of optimum codewords is larger than the one for a received sequence causes non-negligible degradation on error performance at high SN ratios of Eb/N0.
In this short correspondence, (1+uv)-constacyclic codes over the finite non-chain ring R[v]/(v2+v) are investigated, where R=F2+uF2 with u2=0. Some structural properties of this class of constacyclic codes are studied. Further, some optimal binary linear codes are obtained from these constacyclic codes.

Motivated by the design of fault-tolerant multiprocessor interconnection networks, this paper considers the following problem: Given a positive integer t and a graph H, construct a graph G from H by adding a minimum number Δ(t, H) of edges such that even after deleting any t edges from G the remaining graph contains H as a subgraph. We estimate Δ(t, H) for the hypercube and torus, which are well-known as important interconnection networks for multiprocessor systems. If we denote the hypercube and the square torus on N vertices by QN and DN respectively, we show, among others, that Δ(t, QN) = O(tN log(log N/t + log 2e)) for any t and N (t 2), and Δ(1, DN) = N/2 for N even.
