Even correlation and odd correlation of sequences are two kinds of measures for their similarities. Both kinds of correlation have important applications in communication and radar. Compared with vast knowledge on sequences with good even correlation, relatively little is known on sequences with preferable odd correlation. In this paper, a generic construction of sequences with low odd correlation is proposed via interleaving technique. Notably, it can generate new sets of binary sequences with optimal odd correlation asymptotically meeting the Sarwate bound.

Binary sequence pairs with optimal periodic correlation have important applications in many fields of communication systems. In this letter, four new families of binary sequence pairs are presented based on the generalized cyclotomy over Z5q, where q ≠ 5 is an odd prime. All these binary sequence pairs have optimal three-level correlation values {-1, 3}.
In this letter, we will prove that chaotic binary sequences generated by the tent map and Walsh functions are i.i.d. (independent and identically distributed) and orthogonal to each other.

Z-complementary pairs (ZCPs) were proposed by Fan et al. to make up for the scarcity of Golay complementary pairs. A ZCP of odd length N is called Z-optimal if its zero correlation zone width can achieve the maximum value (N + 1)/2. In this letter, inserting three elements to a GCP of length L, or deleting a point of a GCP of length L, we propose two constructions of Z-optimal ZCPs with length L + 3 and L - 1, where L=2α 10β 26γ, α ≥ 1, β ≥ 0, γ ≥ 0 are integers. The proposed constructions generate ZCPs with new lengths which cannot be produced by earlier ones.

Pseudo-random sequences with good statistical property, such as low autocorrelation, high linear complexity and 2-adic complexity, have been widely applied to designing reliable stream ciphers. In this paper, we explicitly determine the 2-adic complexities of two classes of generalized cyclotomic binary sequences with order 4. Our results show that the 2-adic complexities of both of the sequences attain the maximum. Thus, they are large enough to resist the attack of the rational approximation algorithm for feedback with carry shift registers. We also present some examples to illustrate the validity of the results by Magma programs.

Two new families of balanced almost binary sequences with a single zero element of period L=2q are presented in this letter, where q=4d+1 is an odd prime number. These sequences have optimal autocorrelation value or optimal autocorrelation magnitude. Our constructions are based on cyclotomy and Chinese Remainder Theorem.
Low-density chaotic binary sequences generated by Bernoulli map are discussed in this paper. We theoretically evaluate auto-correlation functions of the low-density chaotic binary sequences based on chaos theory.

In the past two decades, many generalized cyclotomic sequences have been constructed and they have been used in cryptography and communication systems for their high linear complexity and low autocorrelation. But there are a few of papers focusing on the 2-adic complexities of such sequences. In this paper, we first give a property of a class of Gaussian periods based on Whiteman's generalized cyclotomic classes of order 4. Then, as an application of this property, we study the 2-adic complexity of a class of Whiteman's generalized cyclotomic sequences constructed from two distinct primes p and q. We prove that the 2-adic complexity of this class of sequences of period pq is lower bounded by pq-p-q-1. This lower bound is at least greater than one half of its period and thus it shows that this class of sequences can resist against the rational approximation algorithm (RAA) attack.
In this letter, we present a class of binary sequences with optimal autocorrelation magnitude. Compared with Krengel-Ivanov sequences, some proposed sequences have different autocorrelation distribution. This indicates those sequences would be new. As an application of constructed binary sequences, we derive a class of quaternary sequences of length 4p with autocorrelation magnitude equal to $2sqrt{2}$, which is lower than the autocorrelation magnitude equal to 4 of Chung-Han-Yang sequences given in 2011.

Let Fpm be the field of pm elements where p is an odd prime. In this letter, binary sequence pairs of period N=pm-1 are presented, where sequences are generated from the polynomial x2-c for any c Fpm{0}. The cross-correlation values of sequence pairs are completely determined, our results show that those binary sequence pairs have optimal three-level correlation.

In this paper, a new generalized cyclotomy over Zpq is presented based on cyclotomy and Chinese remainder theorem, where p and q are different odd primes. Several new construction methods for binary sequence pairs of period pq with ideal two-level correlation are given by utilizing these generalized cyclotomic classes. All the binary sequence pairs from our constructions have both ideal out-of-phase correlation values -1 and optimum balance property.

In this letter, several new families of binary sequence pairs with period N=np, where p is a prime and gcd(n,p)=1, and optimal correlation values 1 and -3 are constructed. These classes of binary sequence pairs are based on Chinese remainder theorem. The constructed sequence pairs have optimum balance among 0's and 1's.

Pseudorandom binary sequences balanced and with optimal autocorrelation have many applications in the stream cipher, communication, coding theory, etc. Constructing a binary sequences with three-level autocorrelation is equivalent to finding the corresponding characteristic set of the sequences that should be an almost difference set. In the work of T.W. Cusick, C. Ding, and A. Renvall in 1998, the authors gave the necessary and sufficient conditions by which a set of octic residues modulo an odd prime forms an almost difference set. In this paper we show that no integers verify those conditions by the theory of generalized Pell equations. In addition, by relaxing the definition of almost difference set given by the same authors, we could construct two classes of modified almost difference sets and two ones of difference sets from the set of octic residues.

For an odd prime p and a positive integer r, new classes of binary sequences with period pr+1 are proposed from Euler quotients in this letter, which include several known classes of binary sequences derived from Fermat quotients and Euler quotients as special cases. The advantage of the new constructions is that they allow one to choose their support sets freely. Furthermore, with some constrains on the support set, the new sequences are proved to possess large linear complexities under the assumption of 2p-1 ≢ 1 mod p2.

A novel class of signal of perfect Gaussian integer sequence pairs are put forward in this paper. The constructions of obtaining perfect Gaussian integer sequence pairs of odd length by using Chinese remainder theorem as well as perfect Gaussian integer sequence pairs of even length by using complex transformation and interleaving techniques are presented. The constructed perfect Gaussian integer sequence pairs can not only expand the existence range of available perfect Gaussian integer sequences and perfect sequence pairs signals but also overcome the energy loss defects.

We determine the linear complexity of binary sequences derived from the polynomial quotient modulo p defined by $F(u)equiv rac{f(u)-f_p(u)}{p} ~(mod~ p), qquad 0 le F(u) le p-1,~uge 0,$ where fp(u)≡f(u) (mod p), for general polynomials $f(x)in mathbb{Z}[x]$. The linear complexity equals to one of the following values {p2-p,p2-p+1,p2-1,p2} if 2 is a primitive root modulo p2, depending on p≡1 or 3 modulo 4 and the number of solutions of f'(u)≡0 (mod) p, where f'(x) is the derivative of f(x). Furthermore, we extend the constructions to d-ary sequences for prime d|(p-1) and d being a primitive root modulo p2.

Binary sequences with good autocorrelation and large linear complexity have found many applications in communication systems. A construction of almost difference sets was given by Cai and Ding in 2009. Many classes of binary sequences with three-level autocorrelation could be obtained by this construction and the linear complexity of two classes of binary sequences from the construction have been determined by Wang in 2010. Inspired by the analysis of Wang, we deternime the linear complexity and the minimal polynomials of another class of binary sequences, i.e., the class based on the WG difference set, from the construction by Cai and Ding. Furthermore, a generalized version of the construction by Cai and Ding is also presented.

This letter presents a framework, including two constructions, for yielding several types of sequences with optimal autocorrelation properties. Only by simply choosing proper coefficients in constructions and optimal known sequences, two constructions transform the chosen sequences into optimally required ones with two or four times periods as long as the original sequences', respectively. These two constructions result in binary and quaternary sequences with optimal autocorrelation values (OAVs), perfect QPSK+ sequences, and multilevel perfect sequences, depending on choices of the known sequences employed. In addition, Construction 2 is a generalization of Construction B in [5] so that the number of distinct sequences from the former is larger than the one from the latter.

In this paper, we introduce a construction of 16-QAM sequences based on known binary sequences using multiple sequences, interleaved sequences and Gray mappings. Five kinds of binary sequences of period N are put into the construction to get five kinds of new 16-QAM sequences of period 4N. These resultant sequences have 5-level autocorrelation {0, ±8, ±8N}, where ±8N happens only once each. The distributions of the periodic autocorrelation are also given. These will provide more choices for many applications.

In this paper, we propose new constructions of binary sequences based on an interleaving technique. In our constructions, we make use of any binary sequences with ideal 2-level autocorrelation, a special shift sequence as well as the perfect binary sequence or sequence (0,1,1) in the interleaved structure to get the new sequences. Except for the most autocorrelation values of our new sequences, we find that the unexpected autocorrelation values only occur four or two times in each period no matter how long the period is. We state that the sequences have a good autocorrelation in this case. In particular, the autocorrelation distribution of our sequences is determined.
