A Class of Two-Dimensional Signal Having a Flat Power Spectrum and a Low Peak Factor

摘要

This paper presents a new generative approach for generating two-dimensional signals having both a low peak factor (crest factor) and a flat power spectrum. The flat power spectrum provides zero autocorrelation, except at the zero shift. The proposed method is a generative scheme, not a search method, and produces a two-dimensional signal of size 2(2n_1 +1)~2 x (2n_2 + 1)~2 for an arbitrary pair of positive integers n_1 and n_2 without any computer search. The peak factor of the proposed signal is equal to the peak factor of a single trigonometric function.
