We determine the linear complexity of a family ofp2-periodic binary threshold sequences derived from Fermat quotients modulo an odd primep, wherepsatisfies. The linear complexity equalsp2−porp2− 1, depending whetheror 3 (mod 4). Our research extends the results from previous work on the linear complexity of the corresponding binary threshold sequences when 2 is a primitive root modulop2. Moreover, we present a partial result on their linear complexities for primespwith. However such so called Wieferich primes are very rare.
