Abstract: Klapper (1994) showed that there exists a class of geometric sequences with the maximal possible linear complexity when considered as sequences over $GF(2)$, but these sequences have very low linear complexities when considered as sequences over $GF(p)(p$ is an odd prime). This linear complexity of a binary sequence when considered as a sequence over $GF(p)$ is called $GF(p)$ complexity. This indicates that the binary sequences with high $GF(2)$ linear complexities are inadequate for security in the practical application, while, their $GF(p)$ linear complexities are also equally important, even when the only concern is with attacks using the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm [Massey, J. L., Shift-register synthesis and bch decoding, {\it IEEE Transactions on Information Theory}, {\bf 15}(1), 1969, 122--127]. From this perspective, in this paper the authors study the $GF(p)$ linear complexity of Hall's sextic residue sequences and some known cyclotomic-set-based sequences.
