It is shown that for n≥5n≥5 and r≤n−12, if an (n,M,2r+1)(n,M,2r+1) binary code exists, then the rrth-order Reed–Muller code R(r,n)R(r,n) has ss-PD-sets of the minimum size s+1s+1 for 1≤s≤M−11≤s≤M−1, and these PD-sets correspond to sets of translations of the vector space F2n. In addition, for the first order Reed–Muller code R(1,n)R(1,n), ss-PD-sets of size s+1s+1 are constructed for ss up to the bound ⌊2nn+1⌋−1. The results apply also to generalized Reed–Muller codes.
