Abstract

There are several methods for constructing self-dual codes. Among them, the building-up construction is a powerful method. Recently, Kim and Choi proposed special building-up constructions which use symmetric generator matrices for self-dual codes over GF(q), where q is odd. In this paper, we study the same method when q is even.
