Abstract

Error correction codes defined over real-number field have been studied and recognized as useful in many applications. However, most real-number codes in literature are quite suspect in their numerical stability. In this paper, we introduce a class of real-number codes based on random generator matrices over real-number fields. Codes over complex-number field are also discussed. Experiment results demonstrate our codes are numerically much more stable than existing codes in literature.
