WG- l ( l = 7 , 8 , 16 , 29 ) are the well-known Welch–Gong (WG) stream cipher family with different key length bits. The first version named WG (WG-29) stream cipher was introduced in eSTREAM project as a cipher suitable for hardware implementations. The other variants are proposed for different ap...
