Periodic sequences over finite fields, constructed by classical cyclotomic classes and generalized cyclotomic classes, have good pseudo-random properties. The linear complexity of a period sequence plays a fundamental role in the randomness of sequences. In this paper, we construct a new family of quaternary generalized cyclotomic sequences with order [Formula: see text] and length [Formula: see text], which generalize the sequences constructed by Ke et al. in 2012. In addition, we determine its linear complexity using cyclotomic theory. The conclusions reveal that these sequences have high linear complexity, which means they can resist linear attacks.

The linear complexity and the error linear complexity are two important security measures for stream ciphers. We construct periodic sequences from function fields and show that the error linear complexity of these periodic sequences is large. We also give a lower bound for the error linear complexity of a class of nonperiodic sequences.

An efficient algorithm for computing the k-error linear complexity spectrum of a q- ary sequence s with period 2 pn is presented, where q is an odd prime and a primitive root modulo p2. The algorithm generalizes both the Wei-Xiao-Chen and the Wei algorithms, The new algorithm can compute the k-error linear complexity spectrum of s using at most 4 n+1 steps.
