Abstract
Sequences and their correlation properties have been extensively studied due to their broad applications. In this paper, we develop a connection between sequences and well-studied combinatorial objects, circular Florentine arrays. This connection allows us to derive two types of sequences with good correlation properties. The first type consists of sequences having optimal correlation with respect to the Sarwate bound. Our constructions are based on perfect polyphase sequences. The number of perfect sequences with optimal correlation depends on the existence of circular Florentine arrays, which improves the previous known results. The second type is about multiple ZCZ sequence sets with low inter-set cross-correlation. Each generated ZCZ sequence set is optimal with respect to the Tang-Fan-Matsufuji bound, and each sequence in each set is perfect. In addition, any two sequences from distinct ZCZ sequence sets possess optimal inter-set cross-correlation with respect to the Sarwate bound. Compared with the previous results, the number of ZCZ sequence sets with optimal inter-set cross-correlation property is improved, because of the existence of circular Florentine arrays.
