Sets of Frequency Hopping Sequences: Bounds and Optimal Constructions

Frequency hopping spread spectrum and direct sequence spread spectrum are two main spread coding technologies in communication systems. Frequency hopping sequences are needed in frequency hopping code-division multiple-access (FH-CDMA) systems. In this paper, four algebraic and a combinatorial constructions of optimal sets of frequency hopping sequences with new parameters are presented, and a number of bounds on sets of frequency hopping sequences are described.
