New Constructions of Low Correlation Sequences with High Linear Complexity
In this paper, we propose a new concept named similar-bent function and we present two general methods to construct balanced sequences with low correlation by using similar-bent functions and orthogonal similar-bent functions. We nd that the bent sequence sets are special
cases of our construction. We also investigate the linear complexity of the new constructed sequences. If a suitable similar-bent function is given, the sequences constructed by it can have high linear complexity. As examples, we construct two new low correlation sequence sets. One constructed based on Dobbertin\u27s iterative function is asymptotically optimal with respect to
Welch\u27s bound and the other one is constructed based on Kasami function whose sequences have a high linear complexity
Families of sequences with good family complexity and cross-correlation measure
In this paper we study pseudorandomness of a family of sequences in terms of
two measures, the family complexity (-complexity) and the cross-correlation
measure of order . We consider sequences not only on binary alphabet but
also on -symbols (-ary) alphabet. We first generalize some known methods
on construction of the family of binary pseudorandom sequences. We prove a
bound on the -complexity of a large family of binary sequences of
Legendre-symbols of certain irreducible polynomials. We show that this family
as well as its dual family have both a large family complexity and a small
cross-correlation measure up to a rather large order. Next, we present another
family of binary sequences having high -complexity and low cross-correlation
measure. Then we extend the results to the family of sequences on -symbols
alphabet.Comment: 13 pages. Comments are welcome
High-rate self-synchronizing codes
Self-synchronization under the presence of additive noise can be achieved by
allocating a certain number of bits of each codeword as markers for
synchronization. Difference systems of sets are combinatorial designs which
specify the positions of synchronization markers in codewords in such a way
that the resulting error-tolerant self-synchronizing codes may be realized as
cosets of linear codes. Ideally, difference systems of sets should sacrifice as
few bits as possible for a given code length, alphabet size, and
error-tolerance capability. However, it seems difficult to attain optimality
with respect to known bounds when the noise level is relatively low. In fact,
the majority of known optimal difference systems of sets are for exceptionally
noisy channels, requiring a substantial amount of bits for synchronization. To
address this problem, we present constructions for difference systems of sets
that allow for higher information rates while sacrificing optimality to only a
small extent. Our constructions utilize optimal difference systems of sets as
ingredients and, when applied carefully, generate asymptotically optimal ones
with higher information rates. We also give direct constructions for optimal
difference systems of sets with high information rates and error-tolerance that
generate binary and ternary self-synchronizing codes.Comment: 9 pages, no figure, 2 tables. Final accepted version for publication

Fast Decoder for Overloaded Uniquely Decodable Synchronous Optical CDMA
In this paper, we propose a fast decoder algorithm for uniquely decodable
(errorless) code sets for overloaded synchronous optical code-division
multiple-access (O-CDMA) systems. The proposed decoder is designed in a such a
way that the users can uniquely recover the information bits with a very simple
decoder, which uses only a few comparisons. Compared to maximum-likelihood (ML)
decoder, which has a high computational complexity for even moderate code
lengths, the proposed decoder has much lower computational complexity.
Simulation results in terms of bit error rate (BER) demonstrate that the
performance of the proposed decoder for a given BER requires only 1-2 dB higher
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) than the ML decoder.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1806.0395
