Abstract

We propose feedback-limited NFSRs (nonlinear feedback shift registers) which can generate periodic sequences of period 2k-1, where k is the length of the register. We investigate some characteristics of such periodic sequences. It is also shown that the scale of such NFSRs can be reduced by the feedback limitation. Some simulation and experimental results are shown including comparison with LFSRs (linear feedback shift registers) for conventional M-sequences and Gold sequences.
