galois.bch_valid_codes¶

galois.bch_valid_codes(n, t_min=1)¶

Returns a list of $(n,k,t)$ tuples of valid primitive binary BCH codes.

A BCH code with parameters $(n,k,t)$ is represented as a $[n,k,d{]}_2$ linear block code with $d=2t+1$.

Parameters¶

n : int¶

The codeword size $n$, must be $n=2^m-1$.

t_min : int¶

The minimum error-correcting capability. The default is 1.

Returns¶

A list of $(n,k,t)$ tuples of valid primitive BCH codes.

Return type¶

List[Tuple[int, int, int]]
