An efficiently generated family of binary de Bruijn sequences by Zhu, Yunlong, Chang, Zuling, Ezerman, Martianus Frederic, Wang, Qiang

“…Based on the properties of this class of LFSRs, we propose two new generic successor rules, each of which produces at least 2n-3 de Bruijn sequences. These two classes build upon a framework proposed by Gabric, Sawada,Williams andWong in Discrete Mathematics vol. 341, no. 11, pp. 2977–2987, November 2018. …”
