Cellular automata pseudorandom sequence generation

Pseudorandom sequences have many applications in fields such as wireless communication, cryptography and built-in self test of integrated circuits. Maximal length
sequences (m-sequences) are commonly employed pseudorandom sequences because
they have ideal randomness properties like balance, run and autocorrelation. However, the linear complexity of m-sequences is poor. This thesis considers the use of
one-dimensional Cellular Automata (CA) to generate pseudorandom sequences that
have high linear complexity and good randomness. The properties of these sequences
are compared with those of the corresponding m-sequences to determine their suitability. / Graduate
