Our focus in this paper is on the special case of two-dimensional RS-codes that can correct from $n-3$ insdel errors, the maximal possible number of insdel errors a two-dimensional linear code can recover from. It is known that an $[n], [2]_{q}$ RS-code that can correct from $n-3$ insdel errors satisfies that $q=\Omega (n^{3})$ . On the other hand, there are several known constructions of $[n], [2]_{q}$ RS-codes that can correct from $n-3$ insdel errors, where the smallest field size is $q=O(n^{4})$ . In this short paper, we construct $[n], [2]_{q}$ Reed–Solomon codes that can correct $n-3$ insdel errors with $q=O(n^{3})$ , thereby resolving the minimum field size needed for such codes. 收起
