Tetracode[1] 

Description

The \([4,2,3]_3\) self-dual MDS code with generator matrix \begin{align} \begin{pmatrix}1 & 0 & 1 & 1\\ 0 & 1 & 1 & 2 \end{pmatrix}~, \tag*{(1)}\end{align} where \(GF(3) = \{0,1,2\}\). Has connections to lattices [1].

Notes

See corresponding MinT database entry [2].

Cousin

  • Ternary Golay code — Extended ternary Golay codewords can be obtained from tetracodewords [1]. The tetracode can be used to decode the extended ternary Golay code [3].
