Jointly Optimal Array Geometries and Waveforms in Active Sensing: New Insights Into Array Design via the Cramér-Rao Bound

This paper investigates jointly optimal array geometry and waveform designs for active sensing. Specifically, we focus on minimizing the Cramér-Rao lower bound (CRB) of the angle of a single target in white Gaussian noise. We first find that several array-waveform pairs can yield the same CRB by vir…
