Bounds and Constructions for Codes Protecting Against Asymmetric Errors

Abstract

dc:description

We study binary error-correcting and error-detecting codes suitable for use on a completely asymmetric or Z channel. This channel accepts inputs of 0 and 1 and reproduces these faithfully as outputs, except that occasionally the input of a 1 will erroneously result in the output of a 0. We construct block codes protecting against this error and bound the performance of the best possible codes.
