Bent Functions With $2^r$ Niho Exponents
Gregor Leander, Alexander Kholosha · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 2006
In this note, a new primary construction of bent functions consisting of a linear combination of $2^r$ Niho exponents is presented. This construction generalizes one of the constructions proven by H. Dobbertin, G. Leander, A. Canteaut, C. Carlet, P. Felke, and P. Gaborit.
