Abstract :
We propose an appropriate approach of defining the linear complexity of sequences over an unknown symbol set. We are able to characterize those p-ary sequences whose k-tuple versions now over GF(pk) have the same characteristic polynomial as the original with respect to any basis. This leads to a construction of pk-ary sequences whose characteristic polynomial is essentially over GF(p).
