Abstract

BCH codes are an interesting class of cyclic codes due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In the past sixty years, a lot of progress on the study of BCH codes has been made, but little is known about the properties of their duals. Recently, in order to study the duals of BCH codes and the lower bounds on their minimum distances, a new concept called dually-BCH code was proposed by authors in \cite{GDL21}. In this paper, the lower bounds on the minimum distances of the duals of narrow-sense BCH codes with length $\frac{q^m-1}λ$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ are developed, where $λ$ is a positive integer satisfying $λ\, |\, q-1$, or $λ=q^s-1$ and $s\, |\,m$. In addition, the sufficient and necessary conditions in terms of the designed distances for these codes being dually-BCH codes are presented. Many considered codes in \cite{GDL21} and \cite{Wang23} are the special cases of the codes showed in this paper. Our lower bounds on the minimum distances of the duals of BCH codes include the bounds stated in \cite{GDL21} as a special case. Several examples show that the lower bounds are good in some cases.

Fundamental Scaling Laws of Covert Communication in the Presence of Block Fading

Covert communication is the undetected transmission of sensitive information over a communication channel. In wireless communication systems, channel impairments such as signal fading present challenges in the effective implementation and analysis of covert communication systems. This paper generalizes early work in the covert communication field by considering asymptotic results for the number of bits that can be covertly transmitted in $n$ channel uses on a block fading channel. Critical to the investigation is characterizing the performance of optimal detectors at the adversary. Matching achievable and converse results are presented.

Sequence Reconstruction over the Deletion Channel

In this paper, we consider the Levenshtein's sequence reconstruction problem in the case where the transmitted codeword is chosen from $\{0,1\}^n$ and the channel can delete up to $t$ symbols from the transmitted codeword. We determine the minimum number of channel outputs (assuming that they are distinct) required to reconstruct a list of size $\ell-1$ of candidate sequences, one of which corresponds to the original transmitted sequence. More specifically, we determine the maximum possible size of the intersection of $\ell \geq 3$ deletion balls of radius $t$ centered at $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{\ell}$, where $x_i \in \{0,1\}^n$ for all $i \in \{1,2,\dots,\ell\}$ and $x_i \neq x_j$ for $i \neq j$, with $ n \geq t+\ell-1$ and $t \geq 1$.

A generalization of the map $χ$

The mapping $ χ_n:\mathbb{F}_2^n \to \mathbb{F}_2^n$ defined by $y=χ_n(x)$ with $y_i = x_i + x_{i+1}x_{i+2} + x_{i+2}$, where the indices are computed modulo $n$, has been widely studied for its application in lightweight cryptography. In this paper, we generalize this mapping and completely characterize all these shift-invariant permutations of the form $y_i=x_{i+u}+x_{i+v}(x_{i+w}+a_i)$, where $0\le u, v, w<n$ and $a_i\in \mathbb{F}_2$, $1\le i\le n$.
