In this paper, we employ the concept of the Generalized Discrete Fourier Transform, which in turn relies on the Hasse derivative of polynomials, to give a general construction of Reed-Solomon codes over Galois fields of characteristic not necessarily co-prime with the length of the code. The constructed linear codes  enjoy nice algebraic properties just as the classic one.

This paper is about a new efficient method for the implementation of convolvers and correlators using the Fermat Number Transform (FNT) and the inverse (IFNT). The latter present advantages compared to Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT). An efficient state space method for implementing the Inverse FNT (IFNT) over rectangular windows is proposed for the cases where there is a large overlap be...

Matrices equivariant under a group of permutation matrices are considered. Such matrices typically arise in numerical applications where the computational domain exhibits geometrical symmetries. In these cases, group representation theory provides a powerful tool for block diagonalizing the matrix via the Generalized Fourier Transform. This technique yields substantial computational savings in ...

This brief explores the connections between nonuniform sampling of a certain function and the almost periodic extension of its Fourier transform. It is shown that the Fourier transform of a bandlimited function can be extended (as a weighted sum of translates) as a Stepanoff almost periodic function, to the whole frequency axis. This result leads to a generalized nonuniform sampling theorem whi...
