Abstract
The statistical independence properties of 5 successive digital multistep pseudorandom numbers are governed by the figure of merit p(s)(f) which depends on s and the characteristic polynomial f of the recursion used in the generation procedure. We extend previous work for i = 2 and describe how to obtain large figures of merit for s > 2, thus arriving at digital multistep pseudorandom numbers with attractive statistical independence properties. Tables of figures of merit for s = 3, 4, 5 and degrees ≤ 32 are included.
