Abstract

Recently, a class of binary sequences with optimal autocorrelation magnitude has been presented by Su et al. based on Ding-Helleseth-Lam sequences and interleaving technique (Designs, Codes and Cryptography 86, 1329–1338, 2018). The linear complexity of this class of sequences has been proved to be large enough to resist the B-M Algorithm by Fan (Designs, Codes and Cryptography 86, 2441–2450, 2018). In this paper, we study the 2-adic complexities of these sequences with period 4p and show they are no less than 2p, i.e., its 2-adic complexity is large enough to resist the Rational Approximation Algorithm.
