Abstract :
Compound-error-correcting codes are codes designed to correct some mixtures of random and burst errors called compound errors. Their compound-error-correction capabilities are measured with respect to a generalized metric introduced by M. Hamada (1997) and discussed by M. Kurihara (2000) recently. We propose step-by-step decoding method for linear compound-error-correcting codes as a generalization of the known step-by-step decoding of linear random-error-correcting codes
