description Focused energy delivery (FED) is a technique that can precisely bring energy to the specific region, which arouses wide attention in precision electronic warfare (PREW). This paper first proposes a joint optimization model with respect to the locations of the array and the transmitted signals to improve the performance of FED. As the problem is nonconvex and NP-hard, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is adopted to solve the locations of the array, while designing the transmitted signals under a feasible array is considered as a unimodular quadratic program (UQP) subproblem to calculate the fitness criterion of PSO. In the PSO-UQP framework established, two methods are presented for the UQP subproblem, which are more efficient and more accurate respectively than previous works. Furthermore, a threshold value is set in the framework to determine which method to adopt to take full advantages of the methods above. Meanwhile, we obtain the maximum localization error that FED can tolerate, which is significant for implementing FED in practice. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the joint optimization algorithm, and the correctness of the maximum localization error derived.
