Abstract
Some new algorithms are presented for generating pseudorandom noise utilizing binary maximal length linear recursive sequences of high degree and with many nonzero terms. The ability to efficiently implement high degree recursions is important because the number of consecutive bits which can be guaranteed to be both linearly and statistically independent is equal to the degree of the recursion. The implementations are by interconnection of several short shift registers in a linear manner in such a way that different widely spaced phase shifts of the same pseudonoise sequence appear in the stages of the several registers. This is efficient both in hardware and in software. Several specific algorithms are subjected to extensive statistical evaluation, with no evidence found to distinguish the sequences from purely random binary sequences.
