Bounds on Maximum Lee Distance CodesUpper bounds on the minimum Lee distance of codes that are linear over $\mathbb{Z}_q$ are discussed. The bounds are Singleton like, depending on the length, rank, and alphabet size of the code. Codes meeting such bounds are referred to as Maximum Lee Distance (MLD) Codes. We present some new bounds, proved using combinatorial arguments. The new bounds provide improvements over those in the literature.
