✦ Synopsis

Lee weight is more appropriate for some practical situations than Hamming weight as it takes into account magnitude of each digit of the word. In this paper, considering Lee weight, we obtain necessary lower bound over the number of parity checks to correct bursts of length b (fixed) whose weight lies between certain limits. We also obtain Lee weight bound for such type of moderate-density bursts with limited intensity.
