Abstract

The error-correcting pair is a general algebraic decoding method for linear codes, which exists for many classical linear codes such as generalized Reed-Solomon codes. In this paper, we define a new extended generalized Reed-Solomon code, i.e., lengthened generalized Reed-Solomon code, which has good algebraic structure and many excellent properties, thus we extend the error-correcting pair to the case for lengthened generalized Reed-Solomon codes. Firstly, we give some sufficient conditions for which an LGRS code is non-GRS, and a necessary and sufficient condition for an LGRS code to be MDS or AMDS, respectively. And then, we constructively determine the existence of the error-correcting pair for lengthened generalized Reed-Solomon codes and give several examples to support our main results.
