Title: On the Hamming Auto- and Cross-correlation Functions of a Class of Frequency Hopping Sequences of Length $ p^{n} $,
Abstract: In this paper, a new class of frequency hopping sequences (FHSs) of length $
p^{n} $ is constructed by using Ding-Helleseth generalized cyclotomic classes
of order 2, of which the Hamming auto- and cross-correlation functions are
investigated (for the Hamming cross-correlation, only the case $ p\equiv 3\pmod
4 $ is considered). It is shown that the set of the constructed FHSs is optimal
with respect to the average Hamming correlation functions.
