Register Indirect Addressing:

Register indirect addressing is similar to indirect addressing, except that the address field refers to a register instead of a memory location.
It requires only one memory reference and no special calculation.

EA   =   (R)

Register indirect addressing uses one less memory reference than indirect addressing. Because, the first information is available in a register which is nothing but a memory address. From that memory location, we use to get the data or information. In general, register access is much more faster than the memory access.
