Some remarks on an algorithm of Fitzpatrick

Simon R. Blackburn⋆, W.G. Chambers · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1996

Fitzpatrick's algorithm for solving the classical Reed-Solomon key equation is shown to be related to an algorithm for solving the Welch-Berlekamp key equation. It can be made more efficient when decoding binary BCH codes. Its efficiency is about the same as for the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm.
