F[x]-lattice basis reduction algorithm and multisequence synthesis

By means of F[x]-lattice basis reduction algorithm, a new algorithm is presented for synthesizing minimum length linear feedback shift registers (or minimal polynomials) for the given mul-tiple sequences over a field F. Its computational complexity is O(N2) operations in F where N is the length of each sequence. A necessary and sufficient condition for the uniqueness of minimal polynomi-als is given. The set and exact number of all minimal polynomials are also described when F is a finite field.
