Abstract

Constant error masking behavior of an internal exclusive-OR type signature analyzer due to the changed polynomial seeds was analyzed. Simulation study showed that the change of the polynomial seed does not any have impact on the effectiveness of the internal exclusive-OR type siganture analyzer used in the linear feedback shift registers (LFSR). It was found that the counts of the error masks remained unchanged due to the change of the seeds.
