Abstract

The definition of generalized Hamming weights (GHW)for linear codes over Galois rings is discussed. The propertiesof GHW for Galois ring linear codes are stated. Upper and existencebounds for GHW of ZF_4– linear codes and a lowerbound for GHW of the Kerdock code over Z_4–are derived. GHW of some ZF_4– linear codes aredetermined.
