Aperiodic autocorrelation properties of perfect polyphase sequences

Abstract

Perfect polyphase sequences find applications in radar and synchronisation systems. The authors compute exactly the asymptotic (N to infinity ) peak-to-side-peak ratios of the original Frank and Zadoff-Chu sequences, which shed light on the meaning of the numerical parameters reported by Antweiler and Bomer (Electron. Lett. vol.26, p.2068-70 of 1990).<>
