Abstract :
It is an open question if there exists proper binary linear codes for error detection for all lengths and dimensions. It is known that such codes exist for any given dimension when the length is above some explicit bound. The main result in this paper is new explicit bound that is much lower than the previously known bound. The construction is based on self-complementary codes. As an illustration, proper self-complementary codes are constructed for dimensions 5 and 6 and all lengths.
