An efficient algorithm for determining the linear complexity and the minimal polynomial of sequence with period pmqn over a finite field GF(q) is designed, where p andq are primes, and q is a primitive root modulo p2. The new algorithm generalizes the algorithm for computing the linear complexity of sequences with period qn over GF(q) and that for computing the linear complexity of sequences with period pm over GF(q).
