Abstract: Recently, linear codes constructed from defining sets have been studied extensively. They may have nice parameters if the defining set is chosen properly. Let

m > 2

be a positive integer. For an odd prime

p

, let

r = p^{m}

and

e x t T r

be the absolute trace function from

m a t h b b F_{r}

onto

m a t h b b F_{p}

. In this paper, we give a construction of linear codes by defining the code

C_{D} = (m a t h r m T r (a x))_{x i n D} : a i n m a t h b b F_{r},

where

D = l e f t x i n m a t h b b F_{r} : m a t h r m T r (x) = 1, m a t h r m T r (x^{2}) = 0 i g h t .

Its complete weight enumerator and weight enumerator are determined explicitly by employing cyclotomic numbers and Gauss sums. In addition, we obtain several optimal linear codes with a few weights. They have higher rate compared with other codes, which enables them to have essential applications in areas such as association schemes and secret sharing schemes.
