Abstract
Quantum synchronizable codes (QSCs) are special quantum error-correcting codes which can be used to correct the effects of quantum noise on qubits and misalignment in block synchronization. In this paper, we first construct a new class of QSCs from cyclic codes of length \(2^n\), by using the cyclotomic cosets. Besides, we give another new class of QSCs based on BCH codes of length an integer N satisfying some certain conditions. The synchronization capabilities of all these QSCs are always the upper bound. In addition, the lower bounds of correcting bit errors and phase errors for these codes are also given.
