Modified Berlekamp-Massey Algorithm for Approximating the k-Error Linear Complexity of Binary Sequences

Abstract: Abstract. Some cryptographical applications use pseudorandom sequences and require that the sequences are secure in the sense that they cannot be recovered by only knowing a small amount of consecutive terms. Such sequences should therefore have a large linear complexity and also a large k-error linear complexity. Efficient algorithms for computing the k-error linear complexity of a sequence only exist for sequences of period equal to a power of the characteristic of the field. It is therefore useful to find a… Show more

“…In the literature, this length of the LFSR is referred to as the linear complexity [22]. The Berlekamp-Massey algorithm is an efficient method of determining the linear complexity of a sequence [23]. The forward unpredictability can be confirmed by the linear complexity property.…”

“…This approach is particularly appealing since there exists an efficient procedure (it is so called the Berlekamp-Massy algorithm [23]) for finding the shortest LFSR. This length is referred as the linear complexity associated with the sequence.…”
