| Abstract |
|---|
Based on cyclic difference sets, sequences with two-valued autocorrelation can be constructed. Using these constructed sequences, two classes of binary constant weight codes are presented. Some codes proposed in this paper are proven to be optimal.
Key Words: cyclic difference set, sequence with two-valued autocorrelation, constant weight code, Hamming distance
