proved that the existence of an equidistant code E: (n = 4s + 1,d = 2s, N) with N = n implies the existence of a certain symmetrical BIB design. This result is extended here for the constant weight codes with the same n and d. A theorem on the equivalence of a Hadamard matrix and a certain constant weight code is also proved.

The weight distribution is an important parameter that determines the performance of a code. The minimum distance and the number of corresponding codes that can be derived from the weight distribution, greatly affect the performance of the code. The decoding error probability and other performance m
