Hamza Moufek, Kenza Guenda, Thomas Aaron Gulliver · IEEE Communications Letters · 2016

This letter presents a new version of the McEliece cryptosystem based on quasi-cyclic (QC) low density parity check codes and QC moderate density parity check codes. A modified self-shrinking generator is used to obtain random bits, which are utilized in the cryptosystem. It is shown that this system is secure against known structural and decoding attacks.
