Abstract

Binary and ternary sequences with peaky autocorrelation, measured in terms of high discrimination and merit factor have been searched earlier, using optimization techniques. It is shown that the use of neural network processing of the return signal is much more advantageous. It opens up a new signal design problem, which is solved by an optimization technique called Hamming scan, for both binary and ternary sequences.
