β¦ Synopsis
It is proved that any set of representatives of the distinct one-dimensional subspaces in the dual code of the unique linear perfect single-error-correcting code of length (qB!1)/(q!1) over GF(q) is a balanced generalized weighing matrix over the multiplicative group of GF(q). Moreover, this matrix is characterized as the unique (up to equivalence) wieghing matrix for the given parameters with minimum q-rank. The classical, more involved construction for this type of BGW-matrices is discussed for comparison, and a few monomially inequivalent examples are included.

## Abstract We provide a classification method of weighing matrices based on a classification of selfβorthogonal codes. Using this method, we classify weighing matrices of orders up to 15 and order 17, by revising some known classification. In addition, we give a revised classification of weighing
