Comparing Pseudo, Classical True and Quantum Random Number Generators Using Standard Quality Assessments

[EN] Nowadays, there exists a wide variety of Random Number Generators (RNGs). If the source of randomness is unpredictable physical phenomena, as in physical chips or quantum-based RNGs, they are called True Random Number Generators (TRNGs). If it is a deterministic mathematical algorithm, as in software-based RNGs, they are called Pseudo- Random Number Generators (PRNGs). This study evaluates and compares the quality of three Quantum RNGs, three TRNGs and three PRNGs. The comparative analysis includes NIST SP 800-22, NIST SP 800-90B entropy, Borel normality and Diehard tests, which are which are frequently used for assessing RNG quality.

Abstract

[EN] Nowadays, there exists a wide variety of Random Number Generators (RNGs). If the source of randomness is unpredictable physical phenomena, as in physical chips or quantum-based RNGs, they are called True Random Number Generators (TRNGs). If it is a deterministic mathematical algorithm, as in software-based RNGs, they are called Pseudo- Random Number Generators (PRNGs). This study evaluates and compares the quality of three Quantum RNGs, three TRNGs and three PRNGs. The comparative analysis includes NIST SP 800-22, NIST SP 800-90B entropy, Borel normality and Diehard tests, which are which are frequently used for assessing RNG quality.
