Construction of Near-Optimal Frequency Hopping Sequence Set with Low-Hit-Zone

Abstract

The low-hit-zone (LHZ) frequency hopping sequence (FHS) sets are widely applicable in quasi-synchronous frequency hopping multiple-access (QS-FHMA) systems. In order to reduce mutual interference (MI) in the zone around the signal origin between different users, we recommend the LHZ FHS set instead of the conventional FHS set. In this letter, we propose a design of LHZ FHS sets via interleaving techniques. The obtained sequences can be confirmed that they are near-optimal in relation to the Peng-Fan-Lee bound.
