4. On the Nonlinearity of Maximum-length NFSR Feedbacks
Topic: Electronics & Telecommunications
Published: 8/14/2012
Author: Meltem Sonmez Turan
Abstract: Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) are the main building block of many classical stream ciphers; however due to their inherent linearity, most of the LFSR-based designs do not offer the desired security levels. In the last decade, using Nonlinea ...

7. A Low-Complexity Tree-Search Algorithm to Decode Diversity-Oriented Block Codes with Inter-Symbol Interference
Topic: Electronics & Telecommunications
Published: 6/10/2012
Author: Hamid Gharavi
Abstract: In order to contain a differential propagation delay in a block based cooperative MIMO system, a guard interval can be inserted to mitigate the effect of inter-symbol interference. A larger block size could substantially increase the effective symbo ...
