Abstract
A.J. McAuley (IEEE/ACM Trans. Networking, vol.2, p.16-22, 1994) proposed a new family of error detection codes called weighted sum codes. In the present paper it is noted, that these codes are equivalent to lengthened Reed Solomon codes, resp. shortened version of lengthened Reed Solomon codes over GF(2/sup h/2/). It is also shown, that it is possible to use these codes for error correction of one error in the code word over GF(2/sup h/2/).
