Weighted Block-wise Burst Error Correcting Codes.

In this paper, we construct new types of codes, called Weighted Block-wise Burst Error Correcting Codes (Weighted BBEC Codes), which are an improvement on the previously known block wise burst error correcting codes in the sense of their weight, i.e., (n = n1 + n2, k) linear codes that correct all the bursts of length b1 (fixed) with the weight w1(w1 ≤ b1) or more (less) in the first sub-block of length n1 and all the bursts of length b2 (fixed) with the weight w2 or more (less) in the next sub-block of length n2.
