A Construction of Type-II ZCCS for the MC-CDMA System with Low PMEPR

Abstract: In this letter, we propose a novel construction of type-II $Z$-complementary code set (ZCCS) having arbitrary sequence length using the Kronecker product between a complete complementary code (CCC) and mutually orthogonal uni-modular sequences. In this construction, Barker sequences are used to reduce row sequence peak-to-mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR) for some specific lengths sequence and column sequence PMEPR for some specific sizes of codes. The column sequence PMEPR of the proposed type-II ZCCS is upper bounded by a number smaller than $2$. The proposed construction also contributes new lengths of type-II $Z$-complementary pair (ZCP) and type-II $Z$-complementary set (ZCS). Furthermore, the PMEPR of these new type-II ZCPs is also lower than existing type-II ZCPs.
