The algorithm for channel test patterns like 2047 and 2E15-1

I want to learn these patterns for BERT, thing is i'm told by a site that they are pseudorandom sequences based on an 11 and 15 bit shift register, respectively. That doesn't explain the actual algorithm though :S could someone clear it up for me as well as explain what sequence of bits is used and why? thanks alot in advance :) oh and is the same algorithm also valid for 2E20-1, 2E23-1 and so on for 20 and 23 bits?
