Abstract :
In this article, the linear complexity over Fp of Lempel-Cohn-Eastman (1977) sequences of period pm-1 for an odd prime p is determined. For p=3,5, and 7, the exact closed-form expressions for the linear complexity over Fp of LCE sequences of period pm-1 are derived. Further, the trace representations for LCE sequences of period pm-1 for p=3 and 5 are found by computing the values of all Fourier coefficients in Fp for the sequences.
