Abstract

Linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs) are essential components of communications systems such as pseudo random bit sequence (PRBS) generators, convolutional encoders, scramblers and randomizers. Fig.l (left) shows a LFSR scheme in which the XOR gate is operated among two tapped bits i and i+k within the shift register. The result bit is fed to the shift register at the last position (n) and the sequence in the register is 1-bit shifted as well. The experimental setup for demonstrating an all-optical LFSR
