Abstract

An efficient algorithm synthesizing all shortest q-linearized-feedback shift-registers generating a given sequence of length N over a finite field double-struk F signqm is derived and its correctness is proved. This algorithm, which is a generalization of the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm, has time complexity script O sign(lN) ≲ script O sign(N2) operations in double-struk F signqm, where l is the linearized complexity of the sequence. The algorithm can be applied for efficiently solving the key equation when decoding Gabidulin codes.
