Abstract

An infinite class of new binary linear completely transitive (and so, completely regular) codes is given. The covering radius of these codes is growing with the length of the code. In particular, for any integer ρ2, there exist two codes in the constructed class with d=3, covering radius ρ and lengths (2ρ2) and (2ρ+12), respectively. The corresponding distance-transitive graphs, which can be defined as coset graphs of these completely transitive codes are described.
