Abstract

In recent years, the study relating to low-hit-zone frequency hopping sequence sets, including the bounds on the Hamming correlations within the low hit zone and the optimal constructions, has become a new research area attracting the attention of many related researchers. In this paper, two constructions of optimal frequency hopping sequence sets with low hit zone have been employed, one of which is based on m-sequence while the other is based on the decimated sequences of m-sequence. Moreover, in the special case of \(k=n-1\), the construction based on the decimated sequences of m-sequence also yields low-hit-zone frequency hopping sequence sets with optimal periodic partial Hamming correlation property.
