Ordered covering arrays and upper bounds on covering codes
This work shows several direct and recursive constructions of ordered covering arrays (OCAs) using projection, fusion, column augmentation, derivation, concatenation, and Cartesian product. Upper bounds on covering codes in Niederreiter–Rosenbloom–Tsfasman (shorten by NRT) spaces are also obtained by improving a general upper bound. We explore the connection between ordered covering arrays and covering codes in NRT spaces, which generalize similar results for the Hamming metric. Combining the new upper bounds for covering codes in NRT spaces and ordered covering arrays, we improve upper bounds on covering codes in NRT spaces for larger alphabets. We give tables comparing the new upper bounds for covering codes to existing ones.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Combinatorial Designs is an international journal devoted to the timely publication of the most influential papers in the area of combinatorial design theory. All topics in design theory, and in which design theory has important applications, are covered, including:
block designs, t-designs, pairwise balanced designs and group divisible designs
Latin squares, quasigroups, and related algebras
computational methods in design theory
construction methods
applications in computer science, experimental design theory, and coding theory
graph decompositions, factorizations, and design-theoretic techniques in graph theory and extremal combinatorics
finite geometry and its relation with design theory.
algebraic aspects of design theory.
Researchers and scientists can depend on the Journal of Combinatorial Designs for the most recent developments in this rapidly growing field, and to provide a forum for both theoretical research and applications. All papers appearing in the Journal of Combinatorial Designs are carefully peer refereed.
