A low-rate improvement on the Elias bound

An error occurred while generating the citation.

Abstract

An upper bound on the minimum distance of binary blocks codes, which is superior to Elias' bound for R < 0.0509^+, is obtained. The new bound has the same derivative(-infty) at R = 0 as Gilbert's lower bound. (Elias' bound has derivative-ln 2 at R = 0).
