Abstract

A basic problem about a constant dimension subspace code is to find its maximal possible size Aq(n, d, k). In this paper, we investigate constant dimension codes with parallel linkage construction and multilevel construction and obtain new lower bounds on Aq(18,6,9). By combining the Johnson type bound, we obtain new lower bounds on Aq(17,6,8). These lower bounds are larger than previously best known bounds in Heinlein et al. (2019).
