Abstract | In a linear code, a code symbol with (r, d)-locality can be repaired by accessing at most r other code symbols in case of at most d - 1 erasures. A q-ary (n, k, r, d) locally repairable codes (LRC) in which every code symbol has (r, d)-locality is said to be optimal if it achieves the Singleton-like bound derived by Prakash et al.. In this paper, we study the classification of optimal ternary (n, k, r, d)-LRCs (d \textbackslashtextgreater 2). Firstly, we propose an upper bound on the minimum distance of optimal q-ary LRCs in terms of the field size. Then, we completely determine all the 6 classes of possible parameters with which optimal ternary (n, k, r, d)-LRCs exist. Moreover, explicit constructions of all these 6 classes of optimal ternary LRCs are proposed in the paper. |
