Random number generation in UHF rfid tags

Authentication and encryption are frequently used by secure applications. Random number generators are frequently used by authentication and encryption algorithms. Algorithms that use low resource are needed because of the need to high quality random number generation in low capacity devices. Such generators can be used by all applications which need hard predicted and not frequently repeated numbers. During this research existing random number generators are examined and a new random number generator which can work in low capacity devices has been developed. The developed generator is tested with statistical test suites which are generally used in literature.
