Construction of Constant Dimension Codes From Two Parallel Versions of Linkage Construction
Xianmang He
Abstract
The linkage construction and its generalization is one of the most powerful constructions for constant dimension codes, accounting for approximately 50% of all the listed parameters. We show how to improve the linkage construction of subspace codes by two parallel versions of the linkage construction. This proof allows us to attain codes of larger size for a given minimum distance, which exceeds the latest improvements on the linkage construction in the cases A <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">q</sub> (13, 4, 4), A <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">q</sub> (17, 4, 4), and A <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">q</sub> (19, 6, 6).
