  • Abstract
    Two usual criteria of goodness of pulse compression sequences are the discrimination and the merit factor. Using the notion of equivalence of lp norms, they are related by an inequality. Using bounds on the aperiodic autocorrelation, the inequality is strengthened further to obtain a bound on the merit factor in terms of the length of the sequence and the Barker progression number.
