The problem of finding the complexity of the Nonlinear feedforward sequences has been analysed and a unified method has been developed for finding the complexity of such sequences for the cases when feedback is
1.
(i) an irreducible polynomial;
2.
(ii) product of two irreducible polynomials;
3.
(iii) power of an irreducible polynomial.
The method is based on the minimum polynomial of the compound matrix formed from the companion matrix of the feedback polynomial. Apart from being a unified method, this approach has the advantage that it can be applied to any level of logic and one can get the minimal generator of all possible non-linear feedforward sequences.
