This is a review study of the prime period perfect Gaussian integer sequence (PGIS). When cyclic group {1,2,\u2026,N\u22121} can be partitioned into k cosets, where N=kf+1 is an odd prime number, the construction of a degree-(k + 1) PGIS can be derived from either matching the flat magnitude spectrum criterion or making the sequence with ideal periodic autocorrelation function (PACF). This is a systematic approach of prime period N=kf+1 PGIS construction, and is applied to construct PGISs with degrees 1, 2, 3 and 5. However, for degrees larger than 3, matching either the flat magnitude spectrum or achieving the ideal PACF encounters a great challenge of solving a system of nonlinear constraint equations. To deal with this problem, the correlation and convolution operations can be applied upon PGISs of lower degrees to generate new PGISs with a degree of 4 and other higher degrees, e.g., 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 14, 20 and 21 in this paper. In this convolution-based scheme, both degree and pattern of a PGIS vary and can be indeterminate, which is rather nonsystematic compared with the systematic approach. The combination of systematic and nonsystematic schemes contributes great efficiency for constructing abundant PGISs with various degrees and patterns for the associated applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/axioms13030159","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,28]],"date-time":"2024-02-28T10:37:36Z","timestamp":1709116656000},"page":"159","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Review Study of Prime Period Perfect Gaussian Integer Sequences"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Ho-Hsuan","family":"Chang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"DGUT-CNAM Institute, Dongguan University of Technology, Dongguan 523808, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shiqi","family":"Guan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DGUT-CNAM Institute, Dongguan University of Technology, Dongguan 523808, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miaowang","family":"Zeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DGUT-CNAM Institute, Dongguan University of Technology, Dongguan 523808, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peiyao","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DGUT-CNAM Institute, Dongguan University of Technology, Dongguan 523808, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"531","DOI":"10.1109\/TIT.1972.1054840","article-title":"Polyphase codes with good periodic correlation properties","volume":"18","author":"Chu","year":"1972","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
