This letter investigates the cross-correlation of a linear shift-invariant system's response to a Zadoff-Chu sequence, considering the presence of a multiplicative perturbation such as phase noise at its output. It is shown that the perturbation signal leads to a spurious discrete Fourier transform, degrading the peak-to-sidelobe ratio of the correlation. The implications for the performance limits of channel measurement systems are discussed.
Due to their perfect periodic autocorrelation property, Zadoff-Chu sequences are often used as stimulus signals in the measurement of radio channel responses. In this letter, the cross-correlation of a linear shift-invariant system's response to a Zadoff-Chu sequence is derived for the case that a multiplicative perturbation such as phase noise is present at its output. The perturbation signal is shown to incur a spurious discrete Fourier transform, thus degrading the correlation's peak to sidelobe ratio.
