Decoder for Nonbinary CWS Quantum Codes    [PDF]

Nolmar Melo, Douglas F. G. Santiago, Renato Portugal

We present a decoder for nonbinary CWS quantum codes using the structure of union codes. The decoder runs in two steps: first we use a union of stabilizer codes to detect a sequence of errors, and second we build a new code, called union code, that allows to correct the errors.
