Correlation properties of combiners with memory in stream ciphers

For pseudo-random generators where one or several LFSRs are combined by a memoryless function, it is known that the output sequences are correlated to certain LFSR-sequences whose correlation coefficients c sub(i) satisfy the equation Sigma sub(i)c sub(i)@)u2 = 1. In this paper it is proved that a c...

Zusammenfassung:For pseudo-random generators where one or several LFSRs are combined by a memoryless function, it is known that the output sequences are correlated to certain LFSR-sequences whose correlation coefficients c sub(i) satisfy the equation Sigma sub(i)c sub(i)@)u2 = 1. In this paper it is proved that a corresponding result also holds for generators whose LFSRs are connected to a combiner with memory.
