Abstract :
The maximum length linear shift register sequences, called M-sequences, have several properties suggestive of randomness. These “randomness properties” make the M-sequences particularly useful in many applications which are referred to as “spread spectrum”, and more specifically “direct sequence spread spectrum”. In the context of digital cellular communications, these sequences now form the basis of code division multiple access (CDMA) technology. Several other properties of M-sequences are outlined
