On the minimum weights of binary linear complementary dual codes

Linear complementary dual codes (or codes with complementary duals) are codes whose intersections with their dual codes are trivial. We study the largest minimum weight d(n, k) among all binary linear complementary dual [n, k] codes. We determine d(n, 4) for n ≡ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13 (mod 15), and d(n, 5) for n ≡ 3, 4, 5, 7, 11, 19, 20, 22, 26 (mod 31). Combined with known results, the values d(n, k) are also determined for n ≤ 24.
