In the book about GPS-SDRs is a description of the Goldsequence. This is a pseudorandom-series with interesting correlation properties. It is implemented using two shiftregisters. The following javacode does the trick:

/**
 * A class to represent Gold Sequence Generators for GPS
 */

/**
 * @author Kees

 */
public class GoldSequence
{
  /**
   * note: in the literature the shiftregisters
   * are numbered from left to right 1 to 10
   * we number them 0 to 9,
   * so tap n in literature, here is tap n-1
   */

The little program to test the sequence {2,6}:

public void fillArray9()
    {
      GoldSequence gold26 = new GoldSequence(2,6);
      System.out.print("First 10 chips: ");
      for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
      {
        System.out.print(gold26.next());
      }
      System.out.println();
 
    }

The output:

First 10 chips: 1100100000

This is a strong indication that the program might be correct.

now check that the sequence repeats

public void fillArray10()
    {
      // show the sequence is repeating after 1023 chips
      
      GoldSequence gold26 = new GoldSequence(2,6);
      System.out.print("First 20 chips:  ");
      for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
      {
        System.out.print(gold26.next());
      }
      System.out.println();
      for (int i = 20; i < 1023; i++)
      {
        gold26.next();
      }
      System.out.print("After 1023 chips:");
      for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
      {
        System.out.print(gold26.next());
      }
    }

And output:

First 20 chips:  11001000001110010100
After 1023 chips:11001000001110010100

The output indicates proper working of the class GoldSequence

correlation experiment

public void fillArray11()
    {
      // correlation experiments
      // construct a test-input with 4000 samples of Gold26
      // find the match-point
      
      int inplen = 4000;
      int[] testinput = new int[inplen];
      int[] bins = new int[inplen];
      
      System.out.println("experiment 11. Correlation");
      
      GoldSequence gold26 = new GoldSequence(2,6);

      // throw away first 35 chips
      for (int i = 0; i < 35; i++)
      {
        gold26.nextan();
      }
      
      for (int i = 0; i < testinput.length; i++)
      {
        testinput[i] = gold26.nextan();
      }
      
      gold26.reset();
      
      for (int i = 0; i < inplen; i++)
      {
        gold26.reset();
        int acc = 0;
        for (int j = 0; j < 1023; j++)
        {
          if ((i + j) < inplen)
          {
            acc = acc + testinput[i + j] * gold26.nextan();
          }
        }
        bins[i] = acc;
      }
      
      for (int i = 0; i < inplen; i++)
      {
        System.out.println(i + " " + bins[i]);
      }
    }

Because the first 35 values are thrown away, the first correlation peak is at 1023 - 35 = 988. Next at n*1023 = 2011 and 3034.

Theorie predicts smaller peaks of -65 etc. At the end the values are lower because of truncation.

To test the internal shiftregisters:

public void fillArray12()
    {
      System.out.println("Experiment 12. Print internal regs");
      GoldSequence gold26 = new GoldSequence(2,6);      
      for (int i=0; i<1040; i++)
      {
        System.out.println(i + " " + gold26.getRegs());
        gold26.next();
      }
    }
