Abstract
Concatenated codes have many remarkable properties from both the theor etical and practical viewpoints. The minimum distance of a concatenate d code is at least the product of the minimum distances of an outer co de and an inner code. In this paper, we shall study on a condition tha t the minimum distance of concatenated codes is beyond the lower bound .
