Abstract:A LFSR is commonly used for various stream cryptography applications to generate random numbers. A Leap-ahead LFSR was presented to generate a multi-bits random number per cycle. It only requires a single LFSR and it has an advantages in hardware complexity. However, it suffers from the significant reduction of maximum period of the generated random numbers. This paper presents the new segmented Leap-ahead LFSR to solve this problem. It consists of two segmented LFSRs. We prove the efficiency of the proposed s… Show more
