Superimposed code[14]

Description

A set of binary strings with the property that the bitwise OR of any subset of at most \(s\) codewords uniquely identifies that subset, for some prescribed strength \(s\). Equivalently, in the associated family of supports, no codeword support is contained in the union of \(s\) others [4][5; Thm. 1.2].

Notes

See Refs. [68].
