Abstract

Thomas and Patrik are working on a stream cipher called SNOW 3G. In 2006, it was chosen as the centerpiece of a new set of confidentiality and integrity algorithms for the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS). In 2008, Böhm published an article named "Statistical Evaluation of Stream Cipher SNOW 3G." He put the randomness of the SNOW 3G key stream generator to the test. As a randomness test tool, Böhm uses the NIST test statistics package, which consists of three kinds of tests: lengthy key stream data, short key stream data, and initialization vector data. Only the short key stream set of data failed eight random chance test results out of three kinds of tests, according to the report's findings. The SNOW 3G suggestions, he claims, fail due to a flaw with in cipher's initialization. In this paper, we use the PLL algorithm to modify the SNOW 3G algorithm for key initialization and generation keystream. We employ the same itself Böhm employed. The modify SNOW 3G algorithm exceed whole of the statistic exam in a experiment. The findings show that PLL has an effect on algorithm randomness.
