  • Abstract
    Periodic two-valued signals which exhibit two-level autocorrelation can, in many cases, be made to yield an out-of-phase autocorrelation value identically equal to zero. This can be achieved by replacing the two values of the sequence (normally +1 and -1) with the two values +1 and e, or with +1 and β (β real). Simple expression for φ and β are given, based on the parameters of the difference set to which such signals correspond. Another strategy is to transmit a sequence of +1s and -1s, but of +1s and bs (b real and negative). An expression for b is also obtained
