Abstract :
The binary to P-phase (BTP) transform maps an odd-periodic sequence into an even periodic sequence and vice versa so that the magnitudes of their correlation functions remain unchanged. This BTP transform is used to construct perfect, almost polyphase sequences with small phase alphabets.
