Abstract
In this paper, we look at a waveform design problem for colocated Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar systems. Under continuous phase constraint, we aim to minimize the range-Integrated Sidelobe Level (ISL) with a compatible spectral response. In this regard, we define the range-ISL function in the time domain first, and then express it in the frequency domain using the Parseval relation. Following that, we incorporate weights on the range-ISL in the frequency domain to apply spectral compatibility. As a result, we have a multi-variable, non-convex, NP-hard optimization problem. We proposed an iterative algorithm based on the Coordinate Descent (CD) method to obtain a local optimum solution. We show the performance of the proposed method and compare it to the counterparts in the numerical results.
