On the Selection of Cellular Automata based PRNG in Code Division Multiple Access Communications

Arnab MITRA
Abstract

The main contribution of this article is to investigate the application suitability of Cellular Automata based pseudo-random noise generator in Code Division Multiple Access Communications. New dynamics in group Cellular Automata were explored. Extensive analysis for two classes of group Cellular Automata (maximum length Cellular Automata and equal length Cellular Automata) were carried out. The analysis and comparison results for these classes of group Cellular Automata demonstrate the advantages of equal length Cellular Automata over maximum length Cellular Automata in view of code division multiple access applications.
