  • Abstract
    This paper compares the complexity of an extended Kasami (1964) algorithm with three other algorithms for the Golay code. A nonmathematical method is described to determine the best cover positions. This leads to a result different from the Kasami algorithm and significantly reduces the decoding complexity.
