Abstract

Symbol-pair codes, introduced by Cassuto and Blaum (Proc IEEE Int Symp Inf Theory, 988–992, 2010 [1]), have been raised for symbol-pair read channels. This new idea is motivated by the limitations of the reading process in high-density data storage technologies. Yaakobi et al. (IEEE Trans Inf Theory 62(4):1541–1551, 2016 [8]) introduced codes for b-symbol read channels, where the read operation is performed as a consecutive sequence of \(b>2\) symbols. In this paper, we come up with a method to compute the b-symbol-pair distance of two n-tuples, where n is a positive integer. Also, we deal with the b-symbol-pair distances of some kind of cyclic codes of length \(p^e\) over \({F}_{p^m}\).
