(146, 185, 165454)-Net in Base 3 — Upper bound on s

There is no (146, 185, 165455)-net in base 3, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (146, 184, 165455)-net in base 3, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 3^mÂ â‰¥ 6170 436099 689081 437158 802220 719059 057222 777956 845731 406996 643269 692085 844033 881169 492507 > 3¹⁸⁴ [i]
