            Abstract : 
A method of decoding two-dimensional (2-D) cyclic codes by applying the 2-D Berlekamp-Massey algorithm is proposed. To explain this decoding method, the author introduces a subclass of 2-D cyclic codes, which are called 2-D BCH codes due to their similarity with BCH codes. It is shown that there are some short 2-D cyclic codes with a better cost parameter value. The merit of the approach is verified by showing several simple examples of 2-D cyclic codes
