Summary: 
The present paper introduces an integrated construction of binary sequences having a zero-correlation zone. The cross-correlation function and the side-lobe of the auto-correlation function of the proposed sequence set is zero for the phase shifts within the zero-correlation zone. The proposed method enables more flexible design of the binary zero-correlation zone sequence set with respect to its member size, length, and width of zero-correlation zone. Several previously reported sequence construction methods of binary zero-correlation zone sequence sets can be explained as special cases of the proposed method.
