Abstract

In this correspondence, we give the moments of a Kloosterman sum over F <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">q</sub> in terms of the frequencies of weights in the binary Zetterberg code of length q+1, which are known by the work of Schoof and van der Vlugt. The method is illustrated by giving explicit formulae for the moments up to the tenth moment. As a corollary the weight distribution of a Zetterberg-type binary cyclic code is obtained
