The Algorithmic Generation of Pseudo-Optimum Pulse-Burst Codes.

Abstract

This report describes some initial results in the algorithmic generation of finite length pulse-burst signals whose autocorrelation functions are approximately impulse-like in nature. The codes will be restricted to be real with piecewise constant amplitude that can either be positive or negative (i.e., bi-phase). Such codes find various applications in radar signal processing and digital communication systems. A new pulse-burst code is presented and compared with the Barker and Hoffman codes. (Author)
