The construction of MDS self-dual codes from generalized Reed-Solomon codes
share
MDS codes and self-dual codes are important families of classical codes in coding theory. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate MDS self-dual codes. The existence of MDS self-dual codes over finite field F_q is completely solved for q is even. In this paper, for finite field with odd characteristic, we construct some new classes of MDS self-dual codes over F_q by (extended) generalized Reed-Solomon codes.
