Abstract
A construction is discussed that allows to produce subspace codes of long length using subspace codes of shorter length in combination with a rank metric code. The subspace distance of the resulting linkage code is as good as the minimum subspace distance of the constituent codes. As a special application, the construction of the best known partial spreads is reproduced. Finally, for a special case of linkage, a decoding algorithm is presented which amounts to decoding with respect to the smaller constituent codes and which can be parallelized.
