Abstract

New generalized cyclotomic binary sequences of period \(p^2\) are proposed in this paper, where p is an odd prime. The sequences are almost balanced and their linear complexity is determined. The result shows that the proposed sequences have very large linear complexity if p is a non-Wieferich prime.
