Abstract

Oon constructed large families of finite binary sequences with strong pseudorandom properties by using Dirichlet characters of large order. In this paper Oon’s construction is generalized and extended. We prove that in our construction the well-distribution and correlation measures are as “small” as in the case of the Legendre symbol.
