    A sequence of perfect ternary constant-weight codes of length \(2^r\), weight \(2^r-1\) and minimum distance 3 is presented. The construction is based on binary Hamming codes. It is shown that these parameters are the only ones for which a perfect single error correcting ternary code can exist.
