New BCH-Derived Sequences for CDMA Systems. 46th IEEE - Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems. :1255–1258.
AbstractNew BCH-derived PN-EB (pseudo-noise even balanced) sequences suitable to be used in CDMA systems are presented in this paper. It is assumed a new definition for processing gain, which better accounts for the system performance regarding the narrow band noise rejection, and it is shown how to obtain high processing gain values, namely, by using zero mean spreading signals in channels with selective noise. The new sequences have low autocorrelation levels, exist in large numbers and can provide higher processing gain with selective noise.

A new least-squares approach to differintegration modeling, October. Signal Processing. 86:2582–2591., Number 10: Elsevier
AbstractIn this paper a new least-squares (LS) approach is used to model the discrete-time fractional differintegrator. This approach is based on a mismatch error between the required response and the one obtained by the difference equation defining the auto-regressive, moving-average (ARMA) model. In minimizing the error power we obtain a set of suitable normal equations that allow us to obtain the ARMA parameters. This new LS is then applied to the same examples as in ?R.S. Barbosa, J.A. Tenreiro Machado, I.M. Ferreira, Least-squares design of digital fractional-order operators, FDA'2004 First IFAC Workshop on Fractional Differentiation and Its Applications, Bordeaux, France, July 19-21, 2004, P. Ostalczyk, Fundamental properties of the fractional-order discrete-time integrator, Signal Processing 83 (2003) 2367-2376? so performance comparisons can be drawn. Simulation results show that both magnitude frequency responses are essentially identical. Concerning the modeling stability,both algorithms present similar limitations, although for different ARMA model orders.

New quasi-orthogonal BCH-derived sequences for CDMA applications. European Transactions on Telecommunications. 18:803–810., Number 7: John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
AbstractBased on two methods recently proposed - the Ranging Criterion (RC) and the Generators Ranging Criterion (GRC) - new (quasi-orthogonal) even BCH-derived sequences are generated which are very attractive for synchronous or quasi-synchronous Code Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) systems. Numerical results show that the new family of BCH-derived sequences can contain a higher number of quasi-orthogonal sequences with lower correlation values and higher processing gains (PGs) than the spreading sequences typically used in the third generation of mobile communications system, UMTS or in the recent large area synchronised CDMA (LAS-CDMA) technology. It is shown that the even BCH-derived sequences are easily generated by a linear shift register generator, allowing the construction of systems with receiver structures of low complexity as compared with those of quasi-synchronous systems using low correlation zone sequences, as for instance the LAS-CDMA system.
