Abstract

Let $[n,k,d]_q$ code be a linear code of length $n$, dimension $k$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$ over $GF(q)$. One of the basic and  most important problems in coding theory is to construct codes with best possible minimum distances. In this paper seven  quasi-twisted  ternary linear codes are constructed. These codes are new and improve the best known lower bounds on the minimum distance in [6].
