A Novel Approach to Construct Huffman Sequences with Low PAPR

Abstract

The auto-correlation property of Huffman sequence makes it a good candidate for its application in radar and communication systems. However, high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of Huffman sequence severely limits its application value. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to construct Huffman sequences with low PAPR. We have used the roots of the polynomials corresponding to Huffman sequences of length M + 1 to construct Huffman sequences of length 2M + 1, with low PAPR.
