  • Abstract
    We present an algorithm for systematic encoding of Hermitian codes. For a Hermitian code defined over GF(q 2), the proposed algorithm achieves a run time complexity of O(q 2) and is suitable for VLSI implementation. The encoder architecture uses as main blocks q varying-rate Reed-Solomon encoders and achieves a space complexity of O(q 2) in terms of finite field multipliers and memory elements.
