The Shortest Feedback Shift Register That Can Generate A Given Sequence
نویسندگان
چکیده
Delft In this paper the problem of finding the absolutely shortest (possibly nonlinear) feedback shift register, which can generate a given sequence with characters from some arbitrary finite alphabet, is considered. To this end, a new complexity measure is defined, called the maximum order complexity. A new theory of the nonlinear feedback shift register is developed, concerning elementary complexity properties of transposed and reciprocal sequences, and feedback functions of the maximum order feedback shift register equivalent. Moreover, Blumer’s algorithm is identified as a powerful tool for determining the maximum order complexity profile of sequences, as well as their period, in linear time and memory. The typical behaviour of the maximum order complexity profile is shown and the consequences for the analysis of given sequences and the synthesis of feedback shift registers are discussed.

Shift-Register Synthesis (Modula m)
The Berlekamp-Massey algorithm takes a sequence of elements from a field and finds the shortest linear recurrence (or linear feedback shift register) that can generate the sequence. In this paper we extend the algorithm to the case when the elements of the sequence are integers modulo m, where m is an arbitrary integer with known prime decomposition.

Let s = (s 1 ; s 2 ; : : : ; s n) be a sequence of characters where s i 2 Z p for 1 i n. One measure of the complexity of the sequence s is the length of the shortest feedback shift register that will generate s, which is known as the maximum order complexity of s 17, 18]. We provide a proof that the expected length of the shortest feedback register to generate a sequence of length n is less th...
متن کاملTest embedding with discrete logarithms
When using Built-In Self Test (BIST) for testing VLSI circuits, a major concern is the generation of proper test patterns that detect the faults of interest. Usually a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) is used to generate test patterns. We rst analyze the probability that an arbitrary pseudo-random test sequence of short length detects all faults. The term short is relative to the probabili...
متن کاملDesign of Logic Network for Generating Sequency Ordered Hadamard Matrix H
A logic network to produce the sequency ordered Hadamard matrix H based on the property of gray code and orthogonal group codes is developed. The network uses a counter to generate Rademacher function such that the output of H will be in sequency. A general purpose shift register with output logic is used to establish a sequence of period P corresponding to a given value of order m of the Hadam...
متن کاملBit Swapping Linear Feedback Shift Register For Low Power Application Using 130nm Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor Technology (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Bit swapping linear feedback shift register (BS-LFSR) is employed in a conventional linear feedback shirt register (LFSR) to reduce its power dissipation and enhance its performance. In this paper, an enhanced BS-LFSR for low power application is proposed. To achieve low power dissipation, the proposed BS-LFSR introduced the stacking technique to reduce leakage current. In addition, three diffe...
