An upper bound on the number of states of a minimal trellis diagram for a linear block code is derived and a cyclic code or its extended code is shown to be the worst in terms of Trellis state complexity among the linear codes of the same length and dimension.
Abstract
An upper bound on the number of states of a minimal trellis diagram for a linear block code is derived. Using this derivation a cyclic (or shortened cyclic) code or its extended code is shown to be the worst in terms of trellis state complexity among the linear codes of the same length and dimension. The complexity of the minimal trellis diagrams for linear block codes of length 2/sup m/, including the Reed-Muller codes, is analyzed. The construction of minimal trellis diagrams for some extended and permuted primitive BCH codes is presented. It is shown that these codes have considerably simpler trellis structure than the original codes in cyclic form without bit-position permutation. >

An upper bound on the effective error coefficient of two-stage decoding, and good two-level decompositions of some Reed-Muller codes

TL;DR: An upper bound on the effective error coefficient of a two-level code with two-stage decoding is presented and this bound provides a guideline for constructing two- level codes to achieve a good trade-off between the error performance and decoding complexity.

The Extraction and Complexity Limits of Graphical Models for Linear Codes

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the square root bound for tree-biting trellises to graphical models with arbitrary cyclic topologies is proposed. But the work is focused on extractive graphical model problems and aims to lay out some of the foundations of such problems for linear codes.

Generalized Hamming weights for linear codes

TL;DR: By viewing the minimum Hamming weight as a certain minimum property of one-dimensional subcodes, a generalized notion of higher-dimensional Hamming weights is obtained, which characterize the code performance on the wire-tap channel of type II.
