Abstract

Let \(r\) be an arbitrary positive integer greater than \(1\) and \(n=3r\). For the decimation \(d=3^{r}+2\) or \(3^{2r}+2\), the cross-correlation distribution between a ternary \(m\)-sequence and its \(d\)-decimated sequence is completely determined. The result presented in this paper generalizes the recent work of Zhang, Li, Feng and Ge, and settles a conjecture proposed by them.
