Also known as Two-dimensional code.
Root code for the Matrix Kingdom
Description
Encodes \(K\) states (codewords) in an \(m\times n\)-dimensional matrix of coordinates over a field (e.g., the Galois field \(GF(q)\) or the complex numbers \(\mathbb{C}\)).

- Finite-dimensional error-correcting code (ECC)
- Block code
- Group-alphabet code — Matrix-based code alphabets are fields, which are groups under addition.

- \(q\)-ary code — Elements of fields such as \(GF(p^{ml})\) can be written as \(m\)-dimensional vectors over \(GF(p^l)\) or \((m\times l)\)-dimensional matrices over \(GF(p)\). This idea is used to convert between ordinary block codes and matrix-based codes such as disk array codes and rank-metric codes.
