In quasi-synchronous frequency-hopping multiple access (QS-FHMA) systems, relative delays are allowed to vary in a domain around the origin. Under such condition, the low hit zone (LHZ) frequency-hopping sequence (FHS) set is more propitious than the conventional FHS set to be applied by the systems. In this paper, a construction based on the interleaving techniques of FHS set with LHZ is proposed. Besides the requirement for this constructed LHZ FHS set to get the optimality or the near optimality with respect to the Peng-Fan-Lee bound is also given. It turns out that the constructed LHZ FHS set has new parameters not covered in the literature, thus it does have great significance in practice.
