In this work, chaotic sequences with good auto-correlation properties are presented. The studied sequences are synthesized by means of the logistic map function and, been chaotic but fully deterministic, become a good alternative for well-known sequences, for example the Zadoff-Chu sequences, especially for small size sequences commonly used for frame synchronization purposes in digital communications systems. A new auto-correlation goodness metric is proposed, and it is employed as objective function in order to maximize the correlation goodness for short synchronization sequences synthesized by means the logistic map function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations鈥揷itations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
