Summary: Permutation decoding is a technique which involves finding a subset $$S$$, called PD-set, of the permutation automorphism group of a code $$C$$. Constructions of small PD-sets for partial decoding for two families of $$\mathbb{Z}_4$$-linear codes (Hadamard and Kerdock) are given. Moreover, different decoding methods for $$\mathbb{Z}_4$$-linear codes are compared by showing their performance applied to these two families.
For the entire collection see [Zbl 1354.05002].
