A family of ternary quasi-perfect BCH codes

In this paper we present a family of ternary quasi-perfect BCH codes. These codes are of minimum distance 5 and covering radius 3. The first member of this family is the ternary quadratic-residue code of length 13. Keywords Quasi-perfect codes ? Packing radius ? Covering radius ? Algebraic decoding AMS Classifications 94B15 ? 94B35 ? 11T71
