High complexity of frequency-hopping (FH)/spread- spectrum(SS) sequence is of great importance to high-security multiple-access communication systems, for it makes FH/SS sequence difficult to be analyzed. In this paper, a new complexity metric to evaluate the unpredictability of FH/SS sequence based on the Fuzzy Entropy(FuzzyEn) is presented. Simulation and analytical results show that, the proposed FuzzyEn works can effectively discern the changing complexities of the FH/SS sequences, and are compared with complexity metric based on the Approximate Entropy(ApEn). The FuzzyEn scheme has obvious advantages in the robustness to resolution parameter, the dependence to observation length and the sensitivity to vector dimension.
