NORMAL-BASIS TO CANONICAL-BASIS TRANSFORMATION FOR BINARY GALOIS-FIELDS GF(2m)

摘要

Basis conversion from normal form to canonical form is provided for both generic polynomials and special irreducible polynomials in the form of “all ones”, referred to as “all-ones-polynomials” (AOP). Generation and storing of large matrices is minimized by creating matrices on the fly, or by providing an alternate means of computing a result with minimal hardware extensions.
