✦ Synopsis


We describe a code lengthening technique that uses unequal error protection codes as su$x codes and combine it with iteration of the conventional Construction X. By applying this technique to BCH codes, we obtain "ve new binary codes, 13 new ternary codes, and 13 new quarternary codes. An improvement of Construction XX yields two new ternary codes.
