Abstract

Recently, highly nonlinear functions have been successfully employed to construct authentication codes with and without secrecy. In this paper, we construct four classes of systematic authentication codes from perfect nonlinear functions and almost-perfect nonlinear functions. The systematic authentication codes presented in this paper are either better than existing codes or as good as the best codes known.
