The full kinetic dynamics of a perpendicular collisionless shock is studied by means of a one-dimensional
electromagnetic full particle simulation. The present simulation domain is taken in the shock rest frame in
contrast to the previous full particle simulations of shocks. Preliminary results show that the downstream state
falls into a unique cyclic reformation state for a given set of upstream parameters through the self-consistent
kinetic processes.
