Best Known (8, 8+9, s)-Nets in Base 16

(8, 8+9, 257)-Net over F₁₆ — Constructive and digital

Digital (8, 17, 257)-net over F₁₆, using

base reduction for projective spaces (embedding PG(8,256) in PG(16,16)) for nets [i] based on digital (0, 9, 257)-net over F₂₅₆, using
- net from sequence [i] based on digital (0, 256)-sequence over F₂₅₆, using
  - generalized Faure sequence [i]
  - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₂₅₆ with g(F) = 0 and N(F) ≥ 257, using
    - the rational function field F₂₅₆(x) [i]
  - Niederreiter sequence [i]

(8, 8+9, 9668)-Net in Base 16 — Upper bound on s

There is no (8, 17, 9669)-net in base 16, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (8, 16, 9669)-net in base 16, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 16^mÂ â‰¥ 18 450043 504139 546641 > 16¹⁶ [i]
