I am simulating a mini AES encryption/decryption algorithm using MATLAB. For this I need to multiply two 4-bit numbers while treating them as polynomials. It goes though some stages, that are, converting to polynomials, multiply the two polynomials, polynomial reduction to lower power if needed using a predefined irreducible polynomial. Then converting back to 4-bit format.

For instance, multiplying 1011⊗ 0111 is analogous to x3+x+1 ⊗ x2+x+1 The ans is x5+x4+1 has of a power of 5 then you need to reduce it by dividing on the predefined polynomial x4+x+1. The answer will be x2 that is 0100.

I know that there are some functions in MATLAB doing polynomial multiplications but they are kind of general and need some specific function or method to do this.

Many thanks in advance!
