Abstract :
The paper reviews the theory by which amplitude and phase modulated (a.m.ph.m.) pulse trains can be represented by complex number sequences and the means by which they can be generated and processed. The synthesis of pulse trains to have a desired autocorrelation function is described, some useful short Huffman sequences derived from Barker sequences are presented. Finally, the z-transform is applied to the study of combination codes formed by combining shorter sequences.
