B.suribabu Naick, P.rajesh Kumar . An Algorithmic Approach towards Construction of Long Binary Sequences using Modified Jacobi Sequences. International Journal of Computer Applications. 120, 1 ( June 2015), 8-15. DOI=10.5120/21189-3836
Construction of long low autocorrelation binary sequences (LABS) is a complex process which involves many limitations. LABS have many practical applications. In pulse coding schemes, sequences with low autocorrelation side lobe energies are required to reduce the noise and to increase the capability of radars to detect multiple targets. In literature, numerous techniques were employed to solve the LABS problem. For short length sequences, search algorithms can be applied as the search space is manageable. But in our case of long length binary sequences, construction methods are suitable. The major limitations of search algorithms are time and computational power. DH Green [1] in their research utilized modified Jacobi sequences to construct merit factors for long binary sequences. In our case, we used the same construction methods and applied them to various search algorithms. We obtained better results with this implementation. We achieved a merit factor of 6. 4534 whereas Green [1] managed to 5. 99.
