Abstract:

Producing families of codes that behave like finite Gaussian white noise is one of the requirements for some modern CDMA communication systems. This noise like behavior should be obtained jointly with a good cross correlation performance of the codes. Finally they must be easy to generate without high computer memory costs. This work done in close collaboration with Hughes research Laboratory and Hug Space Communication Co. Our research was reported in detail to the National Security Agency. We have constructed a new class of codes based on new mathematical tools using properties of mixing ergodic transformation having better low cross correlation as compared with Gold codes and very good spread spectrum properties. This research has led to a patentbeing filed by Hughes Research Laboratory.
