Dw. Yue et Gz. Feng, Minimum cyclotomic coset representatives and their applications to BCH codes and Goppa codes, IEEE INFO T, 46(7), 2000, pp. 2625-2628
In this correspondence, we consider the minimum cyclotomic coset representa
tives and derive some of their properties. The results allow more precise e
stimates of the dimension of Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) and classical
Goppa codes of a given designed minimum distance, and more precise estimat
es of the true designed distance of BCH codes and the minimum distance of c
lassical Goppa codes.
