Summary: 
Pseudo-random sequences with high linear complexity play important roles in many domains. We give linear complexity of generalized cyclotomic quaternary sequences with period pq over Z4 via the weights of its Fourier spectral sequence. The results show that such sequences have high linear complexity.
