The article presents data analysis of the short-term and long-term-periodic characteristics of the PPS (Pulse Per Second) signal from the navigation systems. The signal arrival time to the Earth was assessed in relation to a high stability frequency source. The basic statistical properties of the signal were calculated, e.g. mean, variance, autocorrelation and actual distributions of random variables were depicted by using a histogram. The differences have been compared between the quality of the signal from the GPS network, the GLONASS network and their combination. The equipment offered by various manufacturers was assessed. Finally, the impact of the MAV filter (Moving Average) on the characteristics of the random variable was examined. At last, but not least, the autocorrelation was checked.

Nowadays modern cryptographic systems require a tremendous amount of keys. Very fast random number generators (RNGs) are needed to produce those keys in the requested time, but what to do when a solution that is already in use reaches the maximum speed? The aim of the paper is to find the answer to this question. In addition, generated random numbers should not leave a cryptographic system, because according to the Kerckhoffs thesis, the security of the whole system should be based only on a key. The cryptographic system should be enclosed within a single chip. In order to check new ideas and prove them, there were used NIST 800-22 test suite and restarts mechanism. The basic concept of the generator built of ring oscillators is still the same; ring oscillators are combined by XOR gates tree. A single ring oscillator consists of inverter, latch and NAND. This kind of construction provides a tool to make synchronous start and stop of all oscillators and the restart mechanism technique is applied in this manner. The speed of generation was increased by using multiple parallel generator trees to generate instantly the whole n-bit word. The paper shows that reproduction of the base structure is not a simple method of increasing the speed of generator. Moreover, it is always important to carefully consider all new ideas, because even if the NIST statistical test suite is passed, there is a chance that the restart mechanism will show some correlations that can be used during attack on the system.

In cryptography, we require that a random sequence should have excellent statistical properties as well as non-deterministic character. Combining multiple independent sources of randomness using the modulo two operation, significantly improves the statistical properties of the generated sequences and also affects the accumulation of true randomness generated in the oscillator sources. This is a very promising method of producing random sequences. In this paper, we compare the implementations of the RO-based combined random generator in various FPGAs technologies offered by various manufactures (Xilinx, Altera, Lattice). In this research, we used a NIST 800-22 statistical test suite to assess the statistical properties. The results show that the method of producing strings with a combined generator is the method stable in terms of technology. The results are similar for implementation in all FPGA used in the experiment. So, the proposed generator can be implemented in various programmable structures together with other components of a cryptographic system.
