Error-Control Block Codes for Communications Engineers

Appendix D presents a list of generator polynomials of binary, narrow-sense, primitive BCH codes of designed error-correcting power t d. Table D.1 lists the code dimension k, codeword length n, the designed Hamming distance ? d = 2 t d + 1, and the generator polynomial g( x) = x n ? k + g n ? k ?1 x n ? k ?1 + g n ? k ?2 x n ? k ?2 + ... + g 1 x + g 0 of the codes, where g j = 0 and 1, 0 ? j ? n ? k ? 1, and n = 7, 15, 31, 63, 127.
