In this paper, we consider a class of second-order Hamiltonian systems of the form
$ \ddot{u}(t)-L(t) u(t)+\nabla W(t,u(t)) = 0 $
where
$ L:R\rightarrow R^{N^2} $
 and
$ W \in C^1(R\times R^N, R) $
 are asymptotically periodic in
$ t $
 at infinity. Under the reformative perturbation conditions and weaker superquadratic conditions on the nonlinearity, the existence of a ground state homoclinic orbit is established. The main tools employed here are the local mountain pass theorem and the concentration-compactness principle.
Keywords: Hamiltonian systems, homoclinic orbit, ground state, local mountain pass theorem, concentration-compactness principle.
