Abstract

In this paper, a new set of frequency-hopping sequences is proposed, and the Hamming correlation distribution of the new set is investigated. The construction of new frequency hopping sequences is based upon generalized cyclotomy. It is shown that the proposed frequency-hopping sequence set is optimal with respect to the average Hamming correlation bound.
