<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I hesitate to just say yes to your question because there are details. REC 2.5.7B has both the diagrams and polynomials using some convention for the numbering
that is not standard in all CCSDS books (same as the 415 books but different from the 131.0-B). So in this case an ambiguity is avoided. In this particular REC, if the polynomials are not removed, I suggest that the diagrams be shown first and stated as
the normative material with the polynomials as secondary or in a note. The issue that this topic is addressing is both the ambiguity of the polynomial and the lack of CCSDS convention.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> In an ideal world we would make all the books the same and with information that has no ambiguity. But this is not an ideal world and I suspect
that few people would like to change the existing books. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> So what I am proposing for books currently being worked on and for future books, we simply do not state polynomials that are ambiguous and instead
state things that are not ambiguous. Showing a generator diagram, or showing the full pattern, if it is short enough, are unambiguous ways to define a pattern. I am suggesting that going forward, CCSDS decide on a convention for showing generator diagrams,
labeling the cells in the diagram and when desired but not required, stating an associated polynomial according to a CCSDS convention.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

because they do not have polynomials, it just has the patterns of the components.. This is exactly the point we are trying to make. Stating the pattern or showing a diagram of the generator shift register is unique, the polynomial is not. The 414 books
are the only ones we noticed that have no ambiguity since they do not have polynomials. Hence our suggestion to not state polynomials in future CCSDS books, unless some standard is decided upon.

I must say that I do not understand your proposal. The document you mention is not one that is affected by the proposal in SLS-CS_20-03 in the first place.</span>
<br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
Anyway, I think we should proceed with agency review of REC 2.5.7B assuming I do not get other comments today. I would use the version just sent out by Jim, having just encapsulated the latest inclusion in a note since this is not normative as suggested by
our beloved AD.</span> <br>

it does matter. For example a communications de-randomizer must flow in the same direction at the randomizer. In the case where a pattern is truncated, using the same starting point, the statistics will be different depending on the flow direction. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
please find my response <b>as both ESA representative in RFM WG and as RFM WG chair</b> to the action item:</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
AI_20-01 Report about the PN register proposal in CS_20-03, the possible need to have a similar standard representation and, in case, the preferred way forward</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
Input paper CS_20-03 recommends changes to the following RFM WG books: <br>
<br>
1) 415.1-B-1, dated 2011</span> <span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">
<br>
<br>
2) 415.1-G-1, dated 2013</span> <span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">
<br>
<br>
3) 401.1-B REC 2.5.7B-white</span> <span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">
<br>
<br>
Document CS_20-03 proposes to adopt the Matlab convention. <br>
Main differences between what's in documents 1-3 and the proposal in CS_20-03 is the fact that in the pictures the output register is numbered N in 1-3 as opposed to 0 in the proposal; additionally, the first register is numbered 1 (zero is not used in 1-3).</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
Documents 1-2-3 are consistent. <br>
Document 2 (green book) provides in page 3-3 a detailed explanation of the convention used, addresses different conventions in literature, and links the drawing of the picture with resulting equations and polynomials. This info is in sections 3.4 to 3.8.</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
Document 1 (blue book) provides some explanation of the convention used in section 1.6.2.</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
Document 3 has two pictures in Annex A with no explanation while the polynomials are in the main body of the recommendation.
<br>
<br>
Documents 1-2 were mainly NASA's (GFSC) inputs aimed at extending the SNIP agreement (latest version from 1998) between ESA, NASA and NASDA (now JAXA) for which the latest version dates November 1998 to encompass more CCSDS agencies.</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
The change request in CS_20-03 would entail editing the following number of pictures: 5 (doc 1) + 10 (doc 2) + 2 doc (3) = 17 in addition to adjusting the related text.</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
Given that documents 1 and 2 have been used for almost a decade with no report of implementation mistakes by ESA equipment developers, and the changes in CS_20-03 would result in full disagreement with the SNIP document, it is proposed NOT to adopt the Matlab
convention for the RFM WG books. However, concerning the draft DDOR recommendation 2.5.7B under development, some explanation could be added as done in 1 (or even in 2.)</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
It is possible that other WGs of the SLS area may prefer a different approach for their books but as long as the recommendations of the same WG are consistent, I do not see this as an issue.</span>
