Abstract

We construct new sequences over finite rings having optimal Hamming correlation properties. These sequences are useful in frequency hopping multiple-access (FHMA) spreadspectrum communication systems. Our constructions can be classified into linear and nonlinear categories, both giving optimal Hamming correlations according to Lempel-Greenberger bound. The nonlinear sequences have large linear complexity and can be seen as a generalized version of GMW sequences over fields. © 1998 IEEE.
