On Binary Shadow Codes
<|reference_start|>On Binary Shadow Codes: We generalize the shadow codes of Cherubini and Micheli to include basic polynomials having arbitrary degree, and show that restricting basic polynomials to have degree one or less can result in improved lower bounds on the minimum distance of the code. However, even these improved lower bounds suggest that shadow codes have considerably inferior distance-rate characteristics compared with the concatenation of a Reed-Solomon outer code and a first-order Reed-Muller inner code.<|reference_end|>
