Abstract

A final state in a shift register arrangement is obtained from an initial state by means of N-fold iteration using an iteration rule prescribed by a characteristic polynomial f(x) of n-th order. To determine the final state, a tap mask which is characteristic of N′ shift register operations is calculated. Using the tap mask, n shift register operations are performed. This produces the n bits of an N′-fold iterated state of the shift register arrangement. Any remaining N-N′ iterations which are needed are performed in another manner.
