  • Abstract
    Upper bounds to the maximum number of codewords in a binary code of length n and asymmetric distance Δ are derived for some values of n and Δ. A method is given in which a code of length n-m and asymmetric distance at least t +1 is constructed by expurgating and puncturing a code of length n and Hamming distance at least 2t+1. Novel asymmetric error-correcting codes are constructed by applying this method to some celebrated symmetric error-correcting codes. a table is presented on the size of optimal asymmetric error-correcting codes of length less than 24 and asymmetric distance less than 6
