Abstract
In this letter, a new class of integer-valued sequences with almost-perfect periodic autocorrelation function is proposed. To construct these sequences, two groups of base sequences with two and four base sequences in each group are developed, and each base sequence is generated from a generalized Hadamard matrix. The new constructed sequences are the sum of the linear combinations of base sequences. Compared with existing almost-perfect sequences whose elements are complex floating-point numbers, integer-valued almost-perfect sequences have the advantages of error-free quantization and less memory space for implementation. In addition, the energy efficiency of a sequence is derived from theoretical expressions. The optimality criteria for coefficients are also obtained to maximize energy efficiency.
