The aim of this paper is to show an upper bound for finding defective samples in a group testing framework. To this end, we exploit minimization of Hamming weights in coding theory and define probability of error for our decoding scheme. We derive a new upper bound on the probability of error. We show that both upper and lower bounds coincide with each other at an optimal density ratio of a group matrix. We conclude that as defective rate increases, a group matrix should be sparser to find defective samples with only a small number of tests.
