Construction of optimal binary low-correlation zone sequence sets by LI Yu-bo, XU Cheng-qian

“…Based on binary pseudorandom sequences with period 2m-1,A new construction of column sequence sets with period 2m+1-1 was presented.With these column sequence sets,one can get a new class of binary low-correlation zone（LCZ） sequence sets whose parameters can reach the Tang-Fan-Matsufuji bound.These LCZ sequence sets have larger set size,as a result,they can be used in quasi-synchronous（QS） CDMA systems to support more users.…”

Research on the construction method of quasi-complementary sequence sets for peak-to-average power ratio reduction of multicarrier signal by Yubo LI, Meiyue WANG, Tao LIU, Xiaoyu CHEN

“…To solve the problem of limited number of sequences in the mutually orthogonal complementary code set and high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in MC-CDMA system, a construction of asymptotically optimal a periodic binary QCSS with low column vector PAPR was proposed.The obtained QCSS with asymptotically optimal parameters had more sequences than the existing QCSS due to the designed mapping set.The QCSS based on the orthogonal Golay sequence set had column vector PAPR of at most 2.Experimental simulation results show that the constructed sequence sets can effectively reduce the time-domain MC-CDMA signal PAPR to 3 dB and have good bit error rate performance.…”

Algorithm and Architecture Optimization for 2D Discrete Fourier Transforms with Simultaneous Edge Artifact Removal by Faisal Mahmood, Märt Toots, Lars-Göran Öfverstedt, Ulf Skoglund

“…Standard approaches for removing these artifacts, using apodization functions or mirroring, either involve removing critical frequencies or necessitate a surge in computation by significantly increasing the image size. We use a periodic plus smooth decomposition-based approach that was optimized to reduce DRAM access and to decrease 1D FFT invocations. 2D FFTs on FPGAs also suffer from the so-called “intermediate storage” or “memory wall” problem, which is due to limited on-chip memory, increasingly large image sizes, and strided column-wise external memory access. …”
