Shankar, B.R.Karuna Kamath, K.2026-02-062009Proceedings - 2009 International Conference on Computer Engineering and Technology, ICCET 2009, 2009, Vol.2, , p. 456-457https://doi.org/10.1109/ICCET.2009.103https://idr.nitk.ac.in/handle/123456789/33216A novel pseudorandom sequence generator is presented in this paper. The genesis of this new generator is evolved from the concept of Lagged Fibonacci generator[1] applied to points on elliptic curves over a finite field. It is observed that the generator has a long period. Also a successful statistical testing of the randomness attributes of the given generator, in accordance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology test suite, admits to a key stream source that is in conformance with the Advanced Encryption Standard for data encryption. © 2009 IEEE.
