Abstract
The problem of finding upper bounds on covering radius is considered. The given estimates depend on another fundamental parameter of a code called dual distance. We obtain a bound for covering radii of self-complementary codes and generalize this approach to binary linear codes by applying different polynomials. We examine BCH codes with large error-correcting capability as well.
