Abstract
We consider weighted Reed–Muller codes over point ensemble S1 × · · · × Sm
where Si needs not be of the same size as Sj. For m = 2 we determine optimal weights and analyze in detail what is the impact of the ratio |S1|/|S2| on the minimum distance. In conclusion the weighted Reed–Muller code construction is much better than its reputation.
For a class of affine variety codes that contains the weighted Reed–Muller codes we then present two list decoding algorithms. With a small modification one of these algorithms is able to correct up to 31 errors of the [49,11,28] Joyner code.
