Introduction: Barker codes representing binary sequences (codes) of finite lengths 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11 and 13 are widely used in solving the problem of increasing the noise immunity of radar channels. However, the code sequences for n > 13 are unknown. Sequences derived from quasi-orthogonal Mersenne matrices also have not been used for these purposes.Purpose: Studying the ways to compress a complex modulated signal by Mersenne sequences obtained from the first rows of a monocyclic quasi-orthogonal Mersenne matrix, as an alternative to Barker codes.Results:It has been found out that the characteristics of autocorrelation functions for Mersenne codes 3, 7 and 11 exceed those for Barker codes. This is a basis for ensuring greater noise immunity of probing signals in radar channels, as well as for increasing the probability of their correct detection, proving the expediency of their application for amplitude and phase modulation of radio signals.Practical relevance:The obtained results allow you to increase the compression characteristics in radar systems when solving the problem of detecting targets under noise and interference. The wide application of Barker codes of length 3, 7 and 11 in digital data transmission systems provides a special interest in similar Mersenne codes when implementing noise-resistant data transmission in radio channels in a complex electromagnetic environment. Discussion: An unresolved problem is the non-symmetry of elements in a coding Mersenne sequence. This problem can be solved either by special synthesis of a phase-modulated signal or by finding new approaches to their compression.

Abstract Introduction Adequate cardiorespiratory fitness is of utmost importance during spaceflight and should be assessable via moderate work rate intensities, e.g., using kinetics parameters. The combination of restricted sleep, and defined physical exercise during a 45-day simulated space mission is expected to slow heart rate (HR) kinetics without changes in oxygen uptake ($${\dot{\text{V}}\text{O}}_{{2}}$$ V ˙ O 2 ) kinetics. Methods Overall, 14 crew members (9 males, 5 females, 37 ± 7 yrs, 23.4 ± 3.5 kg m−2) simulated a 45-d-mission to an asteroid. During the mission, the sleep schedule included 5 nights of 5 h and 2 nights of 8 h sleep. The crew members were tested on a cycle ergometer, using pseudo-random binary sequences, changing between 30 and 80 W on day 8 before (MD-8), day 22 (MD22) and 42 (MD42) after the beginning and day 4 (MD + 4) following the end of the mission. Kinetics information was assessed using the maxima of cross-correlation functions (CCFmax). Higher CCFmax indicates faster responses. Results CCFmax(HR) was significantly (p = 0.008) slower at MD-8 (0.30 ± 0.06) compared with MD22 (0.36 ± 0.06), MD42 (0.38 ± 0.06) and MD + 4 (0.35 ± 0.06). Mean HR values during the different work rate steps were higher at MD-8 and MD + 4 compared to MD22 and MD42 (p < 0.001). Discussion The physical training during the mission accelerated HR kinetics, but had no impact on mean HR values post mission. Thus, HR kinetics seem to be sensitive to changes in cardiorespiratory fitness and may be a valuable parameter to monitor fitness. Kinetics and capacities adapt independently in response to confinement in combination with defined physical activity and sleep.

AbstractS-box is the basic component of symmetric cryptographic algorithms, and its cryptographic properties play a key role in security of the algorithms. In this paper we give the distributions of Walsh spectrum and the distributions of autocorrelation functions for (n + 1)-bit S-boxes in [12]. We obtain the nonlinearity of (n + 1)-bit S-boxes, and one necessary and sufficient conditions of (n + 1)-bit S-boxes satisfying m-order resilient. Meanwhile, we also give one characterization of (n + 1)-bit S-boxes satisfying t-order propagation criterion. Finally, we give one relationship of the sum-of-squares indicators between an n-bit S-box S0 and the (n + 1)-bit S-box S (which is constructed by S0).
