The Moments of a Kloosterman Sum and the Weight Distribution of a Zetterberg-Type Binary Cyclic Code

In this correspondence, we give the moments of a Kloosterman sum over F q 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...
