String concatenation construction for Chebyshev permutation channel codes

Abstract

We construct codes for the Chebyshev permutation channels whose study was initiated by Langberg et al. (2015). We establish several recursive code constructions and present efficient decoding algorithms for our codes. In particular, our constructions yield a family of binary codes of rate 0.643 when r = 1. The upper bound on the rate in this case is 2/3 and the previous highest rate is 0.609.
