This paper proposes a construction method of binary Z-periodic complementary sequence set (Z-PCSs) based on binary aperiodic complementary sequence pair (Golay pair) and interleaved technique. The constructed set is optimal or almost optimal with respect to the theoretical bound in different conditons. The set can be used in multi-carrier code division multiple access communication systems. The designed sequence has periodic complementary characteristics, which lead to a strong ability to resist multi-path interference and multiple access interference.

Embedding efficiency is an important issue in steganography methods. Matrix embedding (1, n, h) steganography was proposed by Crandall to achieve high embedding efficiency for palette images. This paper proposes a steganography method based on multilayer matrix embedding for palette images. First, a parity assignment is provided to increase the image quality. Then, a multilayer matrix embedding (k, 1, n, h) is presented to achieve high embedding efficiency and capacity. Without modifying the color palette, hk secret bits can be embedded into n pixels by changing at most k pixels. Under the same capacity, the embedding efficiency of the proposed method is compared with that of pixel-based steganography methods. The comparison indicates that the proposed method has higher embedding efficiency than pixel-based steganography methods. The experimental results also suggest that the proposed method provides higher image quality than some existing methods under the same embedding efficiency and capacity.

This paper focuses on the comparison of OFDM system channel estimation using time domain techniques and using frequency domain techniques. The channel model is based on the Taiwan DTV field-testing results, with static and dynamic multipath distortion. The simulation results prove that the channel estimation performance of the OFDM system in the time domain is better than in the frequency domain.
