For the given problem, we solve step by step. We are given: [ G_1 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 1\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 0\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}, \quad G_2 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 1\ 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix} ] --- i) Minimum distance of (\mathcal{C}_1) and (\mathcal{C}_2): * The minimum distance (d_{\min}) of a linear code is the smallest weight of a nonzero codeword. Step 1: Generate all codewords of (\mathcal{C}_1) (\mathcal{C}_1) has dimension (k_1 = 3), length (n_1 = 4). Let (\mathbf{u} = (u_1,u_2,u_3)). Then codewords are: [ \mathbf{c}_1 = \mathbf{u} G_1 ] Compute all 8 possible codewords: 1. ( (0,0,0) G_1 = 0000 ) → weight 0 2. ( (1,0,0) G_1 = 1\ 0\ 0\ 1 = 1001 )
