Abstract: In a series of papers, Quesne and Tkachuk (J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. extbf{39}, 10909 (2006); Czech. J. Phys. extbf{56}, 1269 (2006)) presented a D+1-dimensional -two-parameter Lorentz-covariant deformed algebra which leads to a nonzero minimal measurable length. In this paper, the Lagrangian formulation of electrodynamics in a 3+1-dimensional space-time described by Quesne-Tkachuk algebra is studied in the special case up to first order over the deformation parameter . It is demonstrated that at the classical level there is a similarity between electrodynamics in the presence of a minimal measurable length (generalized electrodynamics) and Lee-Wick electrodynamics. We obtain the free space solutions of the inhomogeneous Maxwell's equations in the presence of a minimal length. These solutions describe two vector particles (a massless vector particle and a massive vector particle). We estimate two different upper bounds on the isotropic minimal length. The first upper bound is near to the electroweak length scale (ellelectroweaksim1018,m), while the second one is near to the length scale for the strong interactions (ellstrongsim1015,m). The relationship between the Gaete-Spallucci nonlocal electrodynamics (J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. extbf{45}, 065401 (2012)) and electrodynamics with a minimal length is investigated.
