Abstract :
New constructions of t-error correcting balanced codes, for 1⩽t⩽4, are presented. In a balanced code, all the words have an equal number of 1´s and 0´s. In many cases, the information rates of the new codes are better than the existing codes given in the literature. The proposed codes also have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms
