For a given elliptic curve \(\mathbf {E}\) over a finite field of odd characteristic and a rational function f on \(\mathbf {E}\) we first study the linear complexity profiles of the sequences f(nG), \(n=1,2,\dots \) which complements earlier results of Hess and Shparlinski. We use Edwards coordinates to be able to deal with many f where Hess and Shparlinski’s result does not apply. Moreover, we study the linear complexities of the (generalized) elliptic curve power generators \(f(e^nG)\), \(n=1,2,\dots \) We present large families of functions f such that the linear complexity profiles of these sequences are large.KeywordsLinear complexityElliptic curvesEdwards coordinatesElliptic curve generatorPower generatorElliptic curve power generator
