We show how to transform the feedback function of a Fibonacci NLFSR into several smaller feedback functions of individual bits. Such a transformation reduces the propagation time, thus increasing the speed of pseudo-random sequence generation. The practical significance of the presented technique is that is makes possible increasing the keystream generation speed of any Fibonacci NLFSR-based stream cipher with no penalty in area.14 pages, 4 figures, one reference added, example 4 correctedCryptography and SecurityAn equivalence preserving transformation from the Fibonacci to the Galois NLFSRstext
