A Construction For Binary Sequence Sets With Low Peak To Average Power Ratio

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Conference on Sequences and Their Applications, SETA 2004, held in Seoul, Korea in October 2004. The 30 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited survey articles were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from initially 59 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on complexity of sequences, perfect sequences, sequence construction, sequences modulo z, sequence generator properties and applications, multi-dimensional sequences, optics and OFDM applications, and polynomials and functions.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th IMA International Conference on Cryptography and Coding, IMACC 2011, held in Oxford, UK in December 2011. The 27 revised full papers presented together with one invited contribution were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the field of mathematics and computer science, including coding theory, homomorphic encryption, symmetric and public key cryptosystems, cryptographic functions and protocols, efficient pairing and scalar multiplication implementation, knowledge proof, and security analysis.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the International Workshop on Coding and Cryptography, WCC 2005, held in Bergen, Norway, in March 2005. The 33 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected during two rounds of review. The papers address all aspects of coding theory, cryptography and related areas, theoretical or applied.

Peak signal power is an important factor in the implementation of multicarrier (MC) modulation schemes, like OFDM, in wireless and wireline communication systems. This 2007 book describes tools necessary for analyzing and controlling the peak-to-average power ratio in MC systems, and how these techniques are applied in practical designs. The author starts with an overview of multicarrier signals and basic tools and algorithms, before discussing properties of MC signals in detail: discrete and continuous maxima; statistical distribution of peak power; codes with constant peak-to-average power ratio are all covered, concluding with methods to decrease peak power in MC systems. Current knowledge, problems, methods and definitions are summarized using rigorous mathematics, with an overview of the tools for the engineer. The book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in electrical engineering, computer science and applied mathematics, and practitioners in the telecommunications industry.

The mathematical theory and practice of cryptography and coding underpins the provision of effective security and reliability for data communication, processing, and storage. Theoretical and implementational advances in the fields of cryptography and coding are therefore a key factor in facilitating the growth of data communications and data networks of various types. Thus, this Eight International Conference in an established and successful IMA series on the theme of “Cryptography and Coding” was both timely and relevant. The theme of this conference was the future of coding and cryptography, which was touched upon in presentations by a number of invited speakers and researchers. The papers that appear in this book include recent research and development in error control coding and cryptography. These start with mathematical bounds, statistical decoding schemes for error correcting codes, and undetected error probabilities and continue with the theoretical aspects of error correction coding such as graph and trellis decoding, multifunctional and multiple access communication systems, low density parity check codes, and iterative decoding. These are followed by some papers on key recovery attack, authentication, stream cipher design, and analysis of ECIES algorithms, and lattice attacks on IP based protocols.
