The Autocorrelation Magnitude of Balanced Binary Sequence Pairs of Prime Period $N\equiv 1(\bmod\ 4)$ With Optimal Cross-Correlation
Yang Yang, Xiaohu Tang, Zhengchun Zhou · IEEE Communications Letters · 2015
In this paper, for balanced binary sequence pairs (BBSPs for short) of period N ≡ 1(mod, 4), the optimality of their cross-correlation is determined. Next, a lower bound on the maximal out-of-phase autocorrelation magnitude is established for BBSPs of period N ≡ 1(mod, 4) with optimal cross-correlation. Furthermore, BBSPs with optimal cross-correlation whose maximal out-of-phase autocorrelation magnitude achieves the new lower bound are constructed based on the cyclotomy of order 4. These proposed sequences have a periodic total squared correlation value meeting the Ganapathy-Pados-Karystinos bound, and are therefore an option for use in asynchronous CDMA systems.
