Sequence set design for waveform-agile coherent radar systems

Abstract With increased degrees of freedom of the transmitter, coherent waveform-agile radar system can change its transmission on-the-fly in response to target detection’s requirement. This approach can provide better performance than a single waveform. In this paper, we consider unimodular sequenc...

description Abstract With increased degrees of freedom of the transmitter, coherent waveform-agile radar system can change its transmission on-the-fly in response to target detection’s requirement. This approach can provide better performance than a single waveform. In this paper, we consider unimodular sequence set design (USSD) problem based on summed range-Doppler ambiguity function (SRDAF) for coherent waveform-agile radar system. We present two algorithms for constructing unimodular sequence sets under the constant module constraint with desired minimized sidelobes on a predefined area of range-Doppler plane. The proposed algorithms are constructed based on singular value decomposition (SVD) and cyclic algorithm (CA), respectively. Numerical examples show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
