1. (10 pts) Consider an LFSR with connection polynomial p(x) = 1+x2+x3+x5+x6. Show that p(x) is a primitive polynomial by demonstrating that the LFSR, whose connection polynomial is p(x), generates maximum length sequences (e., sequences with the maximum period 26-1). 2. (20 pts) Consider the following binary sequence: [1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0,…
[1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0] Find the shortest LFSR that generates it using the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm.
And you strongly suspect that an LFRS is used to generate the key stream:

Also, encrypted in the ciphertext you also know that there is a message to you from the instructor; and therefore the message ends with “Your Instructor”. Find the plaintext and the connection polynomial of the LFSR. Note that the ASCII encoding (seven bits for each ASCII character) is used.
Hint: You can use the following Python function to convert a message in ASCII to binary:
def ASCII2bin(message):
m_i = []
mlen = len(msg)
for i in range(0,mlen): ascii_no = ord(msg[i]) print ascii_no
ascii_bin = bin(ascii_no)
print ascii_bin
char_len = len(ascii_bin)
if(char_len<9):
for j in range(0,9-char_len):
m_i.append(0)
for j in range(2,char_len):
m_i.append(int(ascii_bin[j]))
return m_i
