Abstract :	[en] We describe a public key cryptosystem which works in quadratic function fields of characteristic two. Formulas for arithmetic are explicitly given. The security of the system is based on the discrete logarithm problem in these fields. Therefore we also describe a Discrete Logarithm algorithm based on the ideas of Pohlig and Hellman, especially adopted to quadratic function fields of characteristic two.
